So maybe, if you are questioning your sexuality; you shouldn't expect someone young enough to be your grandchild to provide the answers?

At the heart of this is the fact that an older man used his status and power to have an affair with a much younger person, and when it went badly, it was the young guy that paid the price. Now the older man is playing the victim because his actions have caught up with him.

Any time an adult in a position of fame or power decides to engage in ANY kind of relationship with a minor, it's super sus. You have absolutely nothing in common with a literal child. If you want to be a mentor, there are programs for that that at least have some kind of oversight. You can use your platform to share the information. You do not need to be speaking privately with a child. It's always grooming, always. Can we stop being gross, PLEASE?

The young man had a crush on him which I believe stroked his ego. Where he went wrong as a mentor or responsible adult was not shutting it DOWN and making the right decisions. Which in turn has flipped on him and is now biting him on the ass.

[@willowmoon3461]

As a UK citizen, with some friends in the business, this whole thing goes much deeper…he actually met the young man when he was around 10/11 yrs old at the time. As for the “no whiff of impropriety”…this is debatable, and the subject of much speculation here in the UK. If certain sources, and message interactions are to be believed, this young man is one of a number. As for nobody at ITV being aware of the relationship, it was an open ‘secret’, and PS certainly met up with him way more than 6/7 times…the young man in question (MM), believed he was in a genuine, loving relationship with PS. It’s even EXTREMELY weird that PS is paying for the young man’s legal team, to me this seems like further manipulation of the young man.

[@quirkyviper]

I've not heard of any of this from across the pond from y'all. Could you say more about the consequences the price the young man is paying? I'm genuinely curious and taking your word for it, it's just that my Google search gave me nothing and I should hope he's (the young man) able to bounce back from this though I wonder why he should face any backlash in the first place.

[@juliee.7072]

He's an actor. Plus, he and his co presenter put people on the spot all the time. He thought he was untouchable. Now he's crying about his humanity. It may not *all* be an act, but it doesn't feel 💯 genuine.

[@clearday9525]

I agree. He's not the victim he plays. And I find it doubly worrying because there were posts about him back in 2012 when the Savile crimes were being revealed. Posters on mumsnet were disturbed by how PS treated Savile's victims. One said PS remarked about "how sorry he felt for JS's family to the VICTIMS of JS. fgs, basically saying that he knew the layout of the dressing rooms at the BBC, and he can't imagine that happening and no-one seeing... 'But that's what television and radio was like in those days.' " Another poster said, "He asked each woman at least twice why she hadn't reported it. And then again this morning, making out that the culture was different, as if that excuses it. I'd love someone to ask him what he heard about Jimmy, cos I'm a housewife from Glasgow and I knew the rumours years ago so don't believe this is news to him."

[@hathhath2444]

He's meant to be a mentor and role model. He abused that trust and now is held responsible. Not sorry about where he is, this needs to happen so predators like him see what they pay for grooming young people and using their trusted position to do so. Disgusting.....

[@_Sarby1]

School visits, visits to the studio and sexual activity in the dressing room sounds VERY Jimmy Saville. Him repeatedly saying "there's never been a wiff of anything " means ABSOLUTELY NOTHING there were no public "wiffs" with Saville, Rolf Harris and others..... Him saying the young man needed "independent advise" then says so he "put him in touch with a lawyer" ... So IT'S NOT INDEPENDENT THEN IS IT. His attempts to make him seem the victim is wrong, disgusting and just makes him look so much worse (if that's possible)

[@GizmoGremlinDog]

Interesting that he says hes visited schools 1000s of times before... I wonder why the interviewer didn't ask if this was the first time he'd kept contact with a student? Regarding getting the boy an internship he says something along the lines of "I've done it all my life" such a weird interview.

I feel that when he said “do you want me to die”, he was sending that message direct to MM, again manipulating the young man, and more or less in other words, keep quiet, or I may be tipped over the edge, and of course MM would feel responsible, for speaking out if PS did go over the edge

[@Paladin_Artemis]

Thank you for this video. Please keep in mind this guy spent his whole life living multiple lies. He deceived his wife all those years. Also he met the young lad at about 11 years old, not 15

[@Sanderly1820]

I get that but he's of a generation that being gay in the uk before 1967 was against the law punishable by prison time. In Scotland and Ireland the law was still in use till the 1980s. I'm 46 from the uk . I know alot of men as do my wife who's hidden their sexuality got married had kids and lied to their entire family. On,y to come out as gay , he's not the first and certainly not the last man woman to do so. Everyone's commenting his poor wife. What's hurting them more now is the allegation of grooming. There needs to be more evidence of this allegation, its differant if he's found guilty.

[@Paladin_Artemis]

@Phil I had no idea it was punishable by prison. Sorry. When he came out I felt bad for his wife and kids, but I also felt for him because I know men (and women) have struggled with having to hide and suppress who they are. I can't relate to that and I'm sorry for not considering it in my comment. Thank you for pointing it out. I think I disregarded it because of the age of the boy he hired, that he's deflected the actual age they met at, but it is wrong of me to be assuming he's wrong. I feel emotional about it and I'm shouldn't make decisions on that alone.

[@Paladin_Artemis]

@Phil I'm Scottish and I've never heard of same sex relationships being illegal. I've looked it up and it's sad it took so long to change, and even though it was before I was born, I'm ashamed that I had no idea. I know I said in last message, but thanks for letting me know

[@Paladin_Artemis]

But, despite the disappointing history, I find it bad that he got to know this child (11 y/o), for such a long time, and then started a sexual relationship with him as soon as possible after claiming to be a 'role model'. This is not what an adult role model would do, especially when he's seen him grow from a child into a man. I would find it impossible to do such a thing with someone I was a mentor to and knew him as a child almost all the time I'd known him. He should have guided him or... anything but what happened. It was his position that made it bad. That boy would have maybe confused a mentor with love. Him lying his whole life is sad, but it also shows he will be good at it. I hope the boy can say something about it himself eventually

[@EllyB1104]

11? I thought he was 15

[@SJC77.]

I ran a contract at one of the ITV studios 2019-2020. For ITV to claim they knew nothing, to me, is a dangerous lie. We as contractors heard of the affair within a short space of time of being on site. MM every Saturday bought a bouquet 💐 of flowers for PS, they’d be delivered to site every week. I just hope there aren’t anymore victims, no one deserves to be manipulated or groomed.

[@kdawgkaz8352]

I grew up with him being a childrens tv presenter and even back then, i never really cared for him or liked watching him on tv. I never watched him as an adult either. I found him to come across as arrogant, patronising, full of self importance and deceiving. When he came out as gay, i honestly thought "what an absolute twat bag!" His poor wife and daughtets. I felt so bad for his wife, having built a marriage and her life with him for all those years only to find out hes gay. How must that make her feel, my heart truly breaks for her because EVERYONE knew he was coming out because he'd been "found out" about dating a guy. All propaganda to make sure he came out (no pun intended!) looking brave and all that bollocks! No one cares if you are gay, its no big deal but people care if you lead on an innocent women for absolutely years and then cheat on her! He abused his power. He thought he was untouchable, infallible and out right groomed a young lad. PS is an absolute piece of garbage and his now dumster fire of a career is exactly what he deserves.

[@littlebird7590]

Keep in mind that being gay was still illegal when he was young. The grooming was horrible, but I think you'd be surprised how many men and women married because of societal pressure in those days

[@kdawgkaz8352]

@LittleBird it was legal between two consenting adults who were 21 and older. I believe it was legalised in 54. No excuses for him there.

[@ixizn]

Closeted people can legit be in denial themselves, though. Not speaking on him specifically or anything else about the situation, cheating is never okay no matter the circumstances, and the spouse of any closeted person has every right to feel however they feel about it, but most closeted people are not trying to be deceitful. Instead they’ve convinced themselves they can make a straight relationship work as society has forced them to see that as the only option.

[@ixizn]

@@kdawgkaz8352 Imagine if growing up learning the attraction you’re starting to feel and the crushes you have as a kid literally isn’t even legally allowed, though. All while your brain is developing too. Not even including all the other forms of society’s homophobia on top of that. There are many ‘excuses’ why someone closeted would try to build a life with someone straight, that don’t involve them being major douchebags at heart.

[@metalfairywings]

As a Brit, this is very interesting (and concerning) to see how the media must be presenting this so you. Here’s some information from the end of a Brit. (For legal reasons, I’ll say this is all alleged) OKAY. SO… Philip met the victim when he was ELEVEN. The victim was a child actor in multiple childrens programmes on the childrens BBC (CBBC) and was already ‘in TV’ but it was known to those around him in ITV that he was struggling with money. Philip paid for the victim to be driven to and from his HOME multiple times. Apparently very very regularly. This was when the victim had already been employed by ITV, and ITV supposedly knew that this was happening, as they would’ve had to sign off on payments. Philip actively used his money to benefit the victim, his own personal money, which is odd. He speaks multiple times about professionalism, but that’s not professional, neither was the ‘meal’ or the attitude he has towards other people working lower than him on the network he worked at. They moved the victim to a different programme on itv when more reports came in, from this morning, to loose women, where he was supposedly looked out for more, but I fear that separation may have just made the way Philip was him, as more lustful. Many people have spoken out, some anonymously (for fear of the repercussions) to explain he was “narcissistic” and explained how he was mean to the people around him and didn’t care to even speak to the people working for him. It is well known in the UK at this point that ITV is SKETCHY. They’ve had post show su*cides, and now theyre saying that they did a “thorough investigation” into these “rumours” (which other people had spoken up about and been told that they’re harmful rumours and to stop spreading them) They knew about the worry surrounding this young vulnerable person and this rich older man arguably one the most powerful public positions in television. Philip is NOT married. He ended his relationship with his ex wife and came out on the programme ‘this morning’ (which he is the host of) supposedly around the time that the predatory accusations were brought up internally again. Supposedly for fear of their presenter looking like a cheat, they were more inclined to encourage him coming out on the telly, and could then pass of the predatory behaviour as “legal” … Philip pays THIRTY THOUSAND A MONTH basically for negative media suppression. He has a “super injunction” against the media, basically so that negative press about him isn’t allowed to be shared. It’s very deep and probably very deep in their company (itv) with an environment of suppressing and dismissing concerns. There is so much more to this, and the power dynamic is off the scale. A child to young man, most likely unsure of his sexuality, processing as a person, being put in a position of comfort by an old rich man who is gay. Gay≠predatory. But in this case, it’s a very concerning thing to see, considering he admits to an intimate relationship, knowing we know he met him as a young child, and was in a position of power over him. Even if it was “legal” in the sense of age, (I don’t believe it is) the power dynamic is still terrifying. The victim seeker approval and comfort and saw that in a man who has what he didn’t: money, comfortability, a stable career, and I dread to think on how many levels, that comfortability was taken advantage of. His statements are very orchestrated. It’s all written out, itv is planning it all with his former co-host too. It’s so much deeper than this video makes it seem. I’m worried for the victim, who is a wonderful actor, and I watched growing up, as I fear he will never be seen as his work, and only as the person who was groomed by Philip. He deserves so much better, and I fear for him as he realises the extent of the long situation he was in, with someone he looked up to, using him. He was (and is) young and vulnerable, and he is still somewhat controlled by Philips money, with the lawyers. I dread to think about the victims career after this. I wish him all the best. And I’m (unfortunately) confident that because of Philips money and connections, no real justice will be served. The dismissal in “be kind to everyone” after a vunerable person has been taken advantage of is so uncomfortable yet not surprising. I hope this makes the situation more clear. It’s so uncomfortable to watch unfold.

Grooming is more than just pursuing an interest with a minor. It's a set delicate and subtle behaviors to get the minor to stop listening to their inner guidance and separate them from the guidance of their support system to then be able to pursue them. If you're interested in how that happens, you should probably look up the red flags and behaviors of grooming. It's a specific word for a specific set of actions, and I really hate when it's misused. There's also that really subtle difference between mentoring and grooming that the LGBT community is having issues with since the homophobes want to use the term to fear monger.

Have you seen the video of Jack Jones celebrating his one million followers by letting off a party popper in the restaurant? Schofield is there with Mathew having a cosy chat and a meal. That was in March 2015, the lad was 13.

Philip is not just a TV presenter/personality he is also an actor and has been in many big theatrical stage shows. His brother was also just sentenced to 12 years in prison so he probably is grieving the loss as he also apparently disowned him. Put these together with the loss of his job and being caught out add to that a person who enjoys talking about himself more than anything and this interview is the result 🙄 Hopefully the guy will have the courage to speak out, make a ton of money himself and get him sent down to be with his brother!

[@killielila]

his brother sentanced for sexually assulting a minor /grooming . he confessed to Phillip n Phillip said IN COURT he knew months before is brother was caught . That was start of this coming out it had been swept under carpet after he came out as gay (Spacey alibi) in 2020

[@PeerieFairy]

The brother had told Phillip what he'd done, and he never did anything about it....just told him not to do it again, instead of reporting him.

[@karencooper3428]

Whilst I'm not defending anyone's actions, you can't mention someone's brother and assume they're the same. My brother is an architect, I don't think you'd automatically employ me to design your house. His brother being guilty of something doesn't automatically mean he is

[@TF7489]

He does not and did not care for M. He first met him when M was only 10 years old, was taking him out to dinner when M was only 13 years old apparently. He denied gro*ming, that is exactly what comes across that he did. This and his co-stars 'speech' about it came across as fake af. Philip recently even wheeled out his own very elderly poor mother and had a photoshoot of him with her strolling along, sitting on a bench etc, he is just a gold standard manipulator and narc. Poor M was shipped off to another prime tv show when Philip had finished with him, just beyond cretinous

[@zoomie7]

Why on earth would you go out for dinner "to wait" for a 20 year old male to be picked up? It's just a bit bizarre

[@FantasyCelebrityWrestling]

He was most likely recollecting the time he got caught on that guys youtube video, there was no way he was 20 in that video, he looked about 15!

Im so so sick of hearing one grooming story after another, its like will we ever learn as a society? Like ever?

[@clare2401]

Unfortunately we will always have groomers. It's how we deal with it as a society that shows strong morality. We've now got to a stage (and this REALLY frightens me) that we can't even call out this disgusting behaviour because now we've got to take the groomers' mental health into consideration. We now tolerate ANYTHING because if you question it you're racist, you're homophobic, you're transphobic, you'll cause someone to repeat Caroline Flack. Mark my words, children were safer 30 years ago than they are now, and that's shocking

[@Nobody-dp5xo]

@@clare2401 100 % agree thats is what i meant about have we learned anything? I think one reason its seems to be this bad is like you said we cower when needing to be honest, communicate better and actually protect the victims, which we dont seem to do.

So ready for this Trying to figure out why ppl are so ready to believe him when he says the lad was young but not illegal 🤔

[@Cal-c-u-later]

It might have been technically legal, but there was a massive power imbalance so it definitely wasn't appropriate.

[@amalali504]

Sadly this sort of behaviour is almost endemic in the entertainment industry & stage schools don't seem to have the same safeguarding measure of the children to whom access is given as regular schools. It is clear that Phillip has made many enemies over the years who are picking at his remains now but I am also suspicious of them because there's an element of covering their own backs and claiming plausible deniability where one doesn't exist by their sheer proximity to him and his antics.

[@mrssmurf55]

No he is well rehearsed and a master manipulator!

The young runner declared his love for schofield on the national television awards, he also interviews him in one video ive seen and the young runner says something like " where do you see yourself in 10 years' ' and schofield replies " well if im still getting away with it il be a happy man" 👀

[@Glitch_sa_Mhaitris]

The young runner was groomed, formed a trauma bond then philip got nasty after "love" was declared, Matthew got Phils wrath and Matthew confessed to his father who confronted schofield over the phone, threatening to expose him. Schofield freaked and came out as gay, got Matthew removed along with NDAs and now Matthews NDA expires in July. He will speak out

[@cherrysooks8461]

@@Glitch_sa_Mhaitris I hope Matthew does speak out.

[@sarahmayer7026]

He gets introduced (by whom) to a teenaged fan, he then is asked (by whom) to follow the boy on social media, keeps in touch with him, and when the now 19-year-old fan asks to visit the studio and get some work experience, he is immediately brought in and cared fo by the celebritiy he admires. He is pampered, "loved by everyone" (see, Schofield had no choice but fall for him), given advanced career choice upon advanced career choice in a very short time, all supported heavily by Schofield, and that is "just his normal way" of treating his fans? Come on! The thing is, this particular "fan" was smart enough to get something out of this "special treatment" that would eventually have released him from the grip Schofield had on him. A terrifying thought for everyone who feels the need to control others.

[@kellywiggle1]

when they went out 'for a bite too eat whilst waiting for him to be picked up' you can see in that video they're drinking wine as well, hardly just waiting for a lift. i honestly think phillip loved the power he had, how he was seen by this teenager who had hopes and dreams of being in the tv industry and used his power to get what he wanted sexually. i'm not saying he did this while he was underage but still 18, 19 is so young. if he wasn't working with him, i don't think it would be as big a story, once you're 18 you can make those decisions but still, at phillips age you'd think he would know it's wrong to abuse his power in the telly world and honestly i just find it gross that at his ripe old age he would find someone that young attractive anyway, i'm 27 and the thought of a 18, 19, 20 year old is just far too young they're still kids really. i think you're right i do think this was grooming but whether it was intentional or not we'll never really know. also, imagine in your own life if you knew a kid at 15, would u really fancy them as soon as they got a bit older, just plain creepy.

[@goldenrain87]

It's because you're a woman. Majority of men wouldn't think twice to hook up with an 18, 19 or 20 years old.

@Golden Rain there's a difference between hooking up and knowing a literal child and as soon as they've turned 18 have a sexual relationship with them and at work too no less.

[@cherrysooks8461]

I am glad I am not the only one thinking this. I have no desire to watch any further videos he posts concerning this as he is either covering for Schofield or hasn't done his homework on Schofield thoroughly enough.

[@CucumberCheese]

It's equally disappointing to see thousands of people simply call for this guy's head, without fully knowing the facts. Without proof, or evidence, or statements from the ''victim'' in question, there really is no ground for assuming the worst. As inappropriate as a lot of the current facts might seem, nothing has been proven to be illegal yet. And therefore, it's refreshing to see a take on this that isn't automatically biased with the witch hunt mentality that governs the internet these days. I'm ALL for calling out predators and having them locked up, but legal decisions can't be made on assumptions and bias.

[@kgonzalez8098]

[@io2466]

He never showed empathy and kindness to others who say they are struggling with mental health. He went as far as saying to Duchess of Sussex..”shut up”. He launch unrelenting attacks on her using his platform and now he wants empathy??? Please stop preaching to us about kindness. Kindness is not one sided or biased or subjective. It should be accorded to all who deserve it. What he did is egregious. The boy was a minor when he befriended him even though the relationship was not consummated until he was of age. Allegedly. It’s wrong end of. How many more boys has he had inappropriate contact with? He deserves an Oscar for this performance. Of course he’s manipulating those he can manipulate. Who is the innocent person here, him? What about the boy involved? Who is fighting for him? Playing the victim is despicable. We are letting our boys down. I think this rallying round Schofield should stop.

So if he has helped so many people and likes to pay it forward...where are they now?? Didn't hear of anyone saying what a great mentor he was. He said he follows back thousands of people. Yet he never said he gets thousands of requests from young people to help them get work experience. How many does he help every year?? If he does wouldn't he have made sure he was never alone with a young person for everyones safety. Why did he take such a personal interest in this teenager/young man? Sounds like he was waiting for him to become legal (maybe because of what was happening with his brother) Meanwhile M was falling in love and thought he was in a relationship... But ended up being tossed aside when he wanted to be acknowledged.

He has been also an actor, after all the years of being an interviewer he probably would have a good idea what the questions would be. This guy fooled his wife for thirty years, it's beyond belief he had no idea he was gay, questioning his sexuality in his 50's.

[@easyaccessjeans]

I love Observe and the work that Logan does, but does anyone else feel that Logan's read of PS in this video was somewhat biased and sympathetic to PS, even before the analysis of the interview took place? From the very beginning, when Logan goes over the back-story, much of what is said is about PS's hardships suffered as a result of this, including that it's disheartening to watch this happen to him given what a kind presence he's been in the world. Throughout the interview, I noted multiple verbal and non-verbal spikes that I would have expected Logan to jump on, but instead, they got glossed over or fairly minimized. Again, I love Logan and Observe, but this video has got me somewhat questioning his bias and, therefore, his credibility in this particular video. Anyone else feel this way? Am I crazy?
