The married presenter's career was thought to be over after he admitted to lying about an affair with a young male runner on This Morning.

Eamonn Holmes has been vocal in his criticism of his former This Morning colleague Phillip Schofield after the presenter admitted to having an affair with a younger co-worker.

Now, as Schofield has returned to screens and vowed to ‘say whatever I want about whatever I want’, Eamonn has claimed he’s ‘proud’ to have ‘thrown him under the bus’, and even compared him to disgraced broadcaster Huw Edwards, was spared jail just weeks ago after admitting to accessing indecent images of children as young as seven.
