Leading British morning presenter Phillip Schofield is feeling the pressure, ever since he came out clean about his personal life in front of the world.
The star from ITV admitted to having an affair with a male who was much younger and that did not leave a very good taste in the mouths of viewers, who bashed the celeb online for the act that they found to be disgusting.
The reason why the news is so shocking is how people expected better and so much from him as he was carrying a huge reputation of respect earned by fans over the years.
His loving nature and humble behavior always had some people in awe of his presence and it goes without saying that his popularity was over the roof when hosting the popular ITV show. It was a morning show and had a lot of people hooked but little did they know about the bomb he was going to drop on fans.
The star chose to step down from his role amid the backlash and resign from his leading position as host for the broadcast.
The man he was having a fling with was the same youngster who was an employee at the leading ITV channel and that just made matters so much more complex or twisted.
The presenter apologized and hoped his actions would not affect the community but he agrees that it went against the firm’s policy and that’s why he had to make one of the biggest and most difficult decisions of his career.
He added how the whole thing was all consensual but that did not make the on-again and off-again fling the right decision in a professional environment.
Hence, he has chosen to leave amid a startling and conversational ordeal on social media.
