This Morning presenter Alison Hammond became emotional as she said she “still loves Phillip Schofield” following the revelations about his affair with a younger male colleague.
Hammond was speaking on the ITV morning show when she said had been “finding it really painful” after Schofield spoke publicly about the affair.
She added: “However, what he has done is wrong. He’s admitted it, he’s said sorry.
“As a family we’re really struggling to process everything.”
Hammond now presents the show alongside Dermot O’Leary after Schofield stepped down following revelations about his affair with a man who he first met when he was 15.
Schofield says he was not in a relationship with him until the man was 20 years old.
