Phillip Schofield loses another role after This Morning exit

Phillip Schofield has taken a step back from another role after dramatically quitting This Morning earlier this month.

The 61-year-old is no longer an ambassador for the Prince's Trust amid his affair scandal with a younger male on the daytime show.

The charity's official website still features a photograph of the presenter laughing with King Charles III and Fearne Cotton at a previous event, however a Prince’s Trust spokesperson told OK!: “In light of Phillip’s recent admissions, we have agreed with him that it is no longer appropriate to work together.”

Phillip’s own website also previously stated on the “About” page that he was an ambassador for the charity which was founded by King Charles in 1976. However, it appears to have changed with the site now simply referring to the former presenter as a “broadcaster, author, and wine-lover”.

Phillip was missing from the Prince’s Trust Awards earlier this month while his former This Morning co-star Holly Willoughby attended. Holly, 42, looked unfazed by her reported feud with Phillip at the time of the event, on May 16.

A few days later, Phillip announced his resignation from This Morning with “immediate effect” after working on the show for almost 20 years. After another six days, Phillip admitted to having an affair with a “much younger” male runner on This Morning, whilst he was still married to his ex-wife, Stephanie.
