Phillip Schofield, 63, spotted with arms around 30-year-old male companion

Phillip Schofield, 62, has been pictured in central London leaving a bar, giving his male companion a shoulder to lean on as temperatures rose in the city this weekend. The man pictured in the series of photographs with Phillip is London-based nurse Joshua Luke Sharman, 30.

For the occasion, Phillip donned a grey polo shirt, navy linen shorts, and blue Converse. Joshua was pictured wearing a black buttoned shirt, cream linen shorts, and black trainers. Both of them appeared to be holding yellow vapes in their hands as they left a pub in the nation's capital while the sun was out.

In one image, the pair has their arms wrapped around each other's backs, while in another, they are in a full embrace and look as though they are laughing.

Phillip, who came out as gay in 2020 on This Morning, has stepped back from the spotlight after leaving the magazine show in 2023.

He left the show in the wake of an affair with a 20-year-old runner, branding their relationship "unwise but not illegal".

Phillip was married to Stephanie Lowe at the time, and it was reported that she was left "devastated" by the revelation and heartbroken that he'd lied to her.

However, the Daily Mail later revealed that she has chosen not to file for divorce as she doesn't want Phillip to "fall any further" than he already has.

In addition to his very public marriage breakdown, Phillip's relationship with This Morning co-star Holly Willoughby faltered amidst the scandal.

Holly also left This Morning but still presents other shows and has her own wellness business, Wylde Moon.

Phillip's daughter Molly is now his publicist after she left the talent agency that used to represent her father.
