We’ve all heard the rumours and gossip on social media, but you can’t just go on live TV and accuse Phillip Schofield of being a nonce in front of millions of people without any evidence, can you? Especially when he’s not there to defend himself.
Unfortunately, GB News guest Precious Muir didn’t get the memo and caused pandemonium with her comments on Mark Dolan’s show earlier:

In the full clip (below) she keeps doubling down even after everyone on the panel warns her that she could be sued and that saying “allegedly” won’t protect her. She seems pretty confident that the truth will be revealed at some point though, so who knows? Not us, that’s for sure.
So how did these Phillip Schofield rumours even come about anyway? Well, it doesn’t help that his brother is a convicted paedophile, but Phil himself raised eyebrows by dating a lad 34 years his junior, who he had befriended on Twitter while the boy was underage. Here they are together:
Obviously this doesn’t prove anything and absolutely nothing has been substantiated in regard to these rumours about Phillip Schofield, but Precious Muir for one seems to think we have a modern day Rolf Harris/Jimmy Savile on our hands. I guess we’ll have to wait and see how this one plays out.
Eamonn Holmes has already ripped into Phillip Schofield today – alleging he was sacked from This Morning rather than making his own decision to leave. Knives out all over the place.
