Former This Morning host Eamonn Holmes has alleged that there was a “total cover-up” on the ITV show This Morning over Phillip Schofield’s affair with a young male colleague.Phillip, 61, resigned from the broadcaster on Friday before being dropped by his talent agency YMU after he admitted to the "unwise, but not illegal" affair.After Phillip's resignation, a number of former members of the This Morning family have come out and criticised the broadcaster.The show’s former resident doctor, Dr Ranj Singh, has hit out at the daytime show’s “toxic” culture, saying he raised concerns about “bullying and discrimination” two years ago when he worked there and after doing so, felt like he was “managed out” for whistleblowing.

Following Ranj's statement, an ITV spokesperson told The Mirror: "We are sorry to read Dr Ranj’s post today. At ITV we are fully committed to providing every opportunity for anyone who works with us to raise any concern or comments they may have. "Following a complaint made by Dr Ranj, we appointed an external and independent advisor to carry out a review.This external review found no evidence of bullying or discrimination." Eamonn, who previously presented This Morning on Fridays with wife Ruth Langsford, sat down with another ex ITV employee, Dan Wootton, on Monday night for a bombshell interview on GB News.
