Steph Schofield gives statement to the Sun
 
Phillip Schofield's wife has said she will "still be there, holding his hand" after he revealed that he is gay.
The TV star, 57, came out on This Morning on Friday, speaking publicly about his sexuality for the first time in an emotional on-air chat with co-host Holly Willoughby.
Steph, his wife of almost 27 years, told The Sun that she supports Schofield's "brave step".
She said: "I love Phillip, as much today as I ever have, and always will.

I read somewhere that she said she would stay with him until he found someone else, not sure how true that is, what is she finds someone first!

So the Sun had a scoop and were about to out Phil. Contacted him and his PR hatched a plan. Come out live on TV and give the SUN 2 exclusive interviews

I mean do you seriously think Phil and his wife would chose the Sun to do this without the above? :umm2:

This whole thing is stage managed and untruthful imo

Crimson Dynamo 10-02-2020 09:38 AM

and i would not be surprised that it wasnt Ruth who tipped of the SUn

Wouldn’t surprise me if The Scum found out he was gay and blackmailed him tbh, sounds like something they’d do

Nothing matters only what’s best for Phil. She will stay on as the cleaner.

Still that’s her choice let them get with it. but I still think there’s more to come.

It's hard to now what to believe Cherie ,so many conflicting stories,but both papers are dodgy to say the least, this is why I take whatever they say with a pinch of salt.According to them she was 'absolutely shattered'

"Stephanie is "absolutely shattered" that they have been "living a lie for so long".

No, but why come out now, he lost weight and became withdraw, he lived with being gay and hiding it for many years.

Something must of happened to make him come out.

No, with him being gay most likely

bots 10-02-2020 09:56 AM

there could be many reasons for the timing being now. Maybe he feels his children are at an age they can cope ... maybe the story was about to break, maybe he wants to be with someone else ..... and 100 other variants

I take it a step further, i say that their whole marriage has been stage managed for however long.

No the suspicion that he was gay as been around for years the sun would of needed strong evidence or risk being sued.

tending to agree with this, maybe the start of a new decade made them decide they couldn't carry on

their choice of giving the Sun the scoop is suspect though

His wife said she loves him still and is devastated that indicates his secret was not out in the open at home.

And has he said he had not met anyone

in the Sun on sat it stated "he refused to deny he was in a relationship with a man"

bots 10-02-2020 10:17 AM

what i find very suspect is that the crew and presenters on the show knew for years yet were happy to support him on the best marriage ever fairy tale ... it doesnt add up. If I had been one of the presenters i would be saying tone it down a bit Phil, this will come back to bite you

Jigs 10-02-2020 10:24 AM

Both sides of this story are probably true tbh. She probably was shattered by the revelation but I also believe what she says about still loving and supporting him.

Precisely this

Liam- 10-02-2020 10:29 AM

Or maybe she had suspicions all along and she was the one who helped him come to the realisation, it’s not entirely unheard of

Crimson Dynamo 10-02-2020 10:35 AM

Jermey VIne will be taking calls from people who have had similar situations in their marriages at 12-2 on BBC Radio 2

be interesting to see what other people's experiences are here and whether money and fame are a factor in "putting up with it"?

rusticgal 10-02-2020 10:44 AM

….maybe this all has something to do with the bad press he has been getting of late. Amanda Holden and Ruth Langford seem to have under currents of dislike for him as has been reported. Maybe its all connected. Maybe its all been timed to get the sympathy and out pouring of love to get rid of the negative press of late.
I feel for his wife and I admire her loyalty. When you have loved someone for so long it must really hurt to know you have just been there to fulfil a role just to help his career. I hope now she moves on and finds the love of another man.

It would be interesting if she turns out to be lesbian .... this story will really take off then :)
