Morninggate - Daily Mail: Eamonn Holmes blastes Phillip Schofield's 'lies, lies, lies'

Story from Daily Mail:

Eamonn Holmes has launched a fresh attack on Phillip Schofield, insisting he doesn't believe the former ITV star's claim that he has made 'one mistake' in his 40-year career.

In a bombshell interview last week Phillip said he believed his career was over and he had 'lost everything' after admitting he lied about his relationship with a man who worked on This Morning.

Speaking on his GB News programme today, Phillip's former colleague Eamonn called for 'anyone watching today who has kissed Phillip Schofield, let us know'.

He added: 'He said in his 40-odd years of broadcasting that he's made one mistake, he had one kiss that he shouldn't have had.

'I put it to anyone watching today that if you have kissed Phillip Schofield let us know. Let us see if that figure of one grows to the figure that I believe it is probably at.

Elsewhere on the show, speaking to GB News' showbiz presenter Ellie Phillips, Eamonn said: 'We're not supposed to criticise him in case he harms himself but he still thinks he can go on and say lies, lies, lies.

'He's admitted he is a liar. You should see the emails, the texts and the messages I've been sent over the past week. I think he's getting off very very lucky.

'Like everybody else he lied to me, I was happy to stand by him until I found out that he was lying... This isn't about him being gay, not in the slightest.'

Eamonn also criticised Jeremy Clarkson for defending Phillip over the weekend, saying: 'Clarkson didn't work there, what does he know?'
