Eamonn Holmes had no time for his GB News colleague who praised Phillip Schofield live on air. The former This Morning star ripped into his co-host Isabel Webster due to a comment she made about the disgraced This Morning star. After Isabel pointed out that Phillip ‘hadn't done anything illegal', Eamonn fired back : “Why is that even relevant? He met the boy when he was 15, so why do you keep on pushing that?” Isabel had been discussing Phillip’s return to TV, 18 months after he was fired by ITV over his affair with a much younger This Morning colleague.
It’s not the first time Eamonn has publicly taken aim at Phillip in recent days. On Monday, the veteran Northern Irish host insisted on air that he is 'proud' to have been one of the people who 'threw [Schofield] under the bus'. He said: "I believe he is where he deserves to be," before adding: "I am one of the people who threw him under the bus, I am very proud to have done it.
" Eamonn went on: "This man is addicted to fame. Absolutely addicted to fame." Eamonn's rant came amid Phillip's shock return to TV screens.
Last week, the former Dancing On Ice presenter announced he bagged a stint on Channel 5's Cast Away - where he spent 10 days on a deserted island with nothing but a few cameras. When he first stepped down from his role over a year ago, he refuted claims he was "forced out" of This Morning and shared his regrets for lying to the channel, his colleagues and his wife. However, after the star spent time alon.
