Apparently that was a joke, the ‘fans’ are up in arms with Eamonn making a few light hearted comments, but Phil has thanked him for lightening the mood

I’ll probably never say this again, but Eamonn did the right thing yesterday, coming out is such an intense thing, a little humour and lightness is definitely needed

They showed a clip on the news last night, Ruth running up and hugging him like her life depended on it, after how awkward and frosty they were on stage at the NTAs
I wonder if LW will have Steph on, would be nice to hear her story

Quote:
The situation for sexual minorities only improved over the last 60 years or so. It improved dramatically and back then it was bloody awful. To use the current state to assess decisions from the past is lazy and wrong. Also, coming out is not just about the career. The person needs to come out to themselves first, others around him and then it's about the career. We don't know at what point he admitted to himself he was gay. People can lie to themselves successfully their whole lives. He might have thought he was bisexual. Then his family. I can well imagine somebody putting things off year by year thinking how hurt they may be and not having the courage. Decisions like marriage followed by kids are difficult to undo and when was exactly the right moment? At least now his kids are grown up. At the end of the day it's society's homophobia of the past that's to blame. Not good saying, oh you got it good now so why you were not brave when it was bad. Different circumstances.

His use of language is very odd, he said he is ' coming to terms' with being gay... this is the sort of language you might use if you're diagnosed with a terminal illness :/

Maybe his wife has been having an affair for years, getting her 5 a day elsewhere?

Phil was getting bad press, did a journalist dig a bit deeper and unearth a time bomb waiting to go off.
I don’t believe he just woke up one day and said I’ve got it, I’m gay. |
