What Happened To Phillip Schofield? People on social media criticize him as he should have paid respect to the Queen with heart and joined the queue with mourners.
Phillip Bryan Schofield is an English television presenter who works for ITV and is currently the co-presenter of ITV’s This Morning (2002-present).
He faced calls to be ‘sacked’ from This Morning after the presenters reportedly “skipped” the queue to pay their respects to Queen Elizabeth II.
What Happened To Phillip Schofield? Controversies
Philip Schofield and presenter Holly Willoughby were criticized for not joining The Queue with the public when filming for The Morning at the lying state of Queen Elizabeth II in Westminister Hall.
Thousands of mourners and celebrities have been queuing up outside Westminister Abbey to pay their respects to Queen Elizabeth II. She has been lying in state for the past three days.
Moreover, ITV said that government staff escorted Schofield from the press gallery. However, David Beckham was one of many who queued up for hours to mark his respect for the monarch.
The two presenters faced a torrent of online rage and abuse when they were seen entering the Great Hall and joining the queue of mourners filing past the Queen’s catafalque.
Although, they were there alongside a host of other broadcasters and national press outlets for an item that will be broadcast on Tuesday’s show.
However, the producers of This Morning insisted their two-star presenters had certainly not jumped the queue but were there professionally like other world media covering the event.
