K.J. Yossman ITV is standing by one of its most popular anchors after he controversially stepped down from daytime show “This Morning” on Saturday.
ITV’s head of entertainment Kevin Lygo confirmed the network is working with Phillip Schofield on a new prime time series as well as the British Soap Awards, which Schofield is set to host next month and is broadcast by ITV.
In a statement, Lygo said: “Phillip is hands down one of the best broadcasters of his generation and we thank him for his two decades’ worth of absolutely terrific television on the ‘This Morning’ sofa.
We look forward to continuing our relationship with Phillip starting with the British Soap Awards in June and a brand new peak time series to come.” Schofield, who has worked on “This Morning” since 2002, confirmed he would be quitting the show on Saturday after rumors intensified over the past few weeks that he had fallen out with his long-running co-anchor Holly Willoughby.
