Phillip Schofield axed as ambassador for Prince’s Trust following This Morning scandal | The Sun
THE Prince's Trust has confirmed Phillip Schofield has been dropped as ambassador for the charity after his This Morning scandal.
Phil, 61, cut all ties with ITV after it was revealed he had an affair with a much younger male employee – just a week after he was dropped from This Morning.
Now a spokesperson for The Prince's Trust has told The Sun they'll no longer be working with the former TV presenter.
In a statement they said: "In light of Phillip’s recent admissions, we have agreed with him that it is no longer appropriate to work together.”
Last weekend it was revealed that Phillip had been dropped by his agent after the affair with the male ITV employee was exposed, which was not illegal.
Phil's This Morning exit was previously confirmed after weeks of intense speculation about his future and a feud with co-host Holly Willoughby, 42 — and an insider revealed the row was even putting off guests from appearing with them.

Phillip's departure was also fuelled by his brother Tim being outed as a paedo.
Just six days later, he made a bombshell revelation about his "consensual on-off relationship" with the younger colleague – leaving him no choice but to quit ITV altogether.
ITV said no one employed on the daytime show knew of the affair as Schofield "lied" to everyone.
