Phillip Schofield teases major announcement 16 months after This Morning exit --[Reported by Umva mag]

Phillip Schofield has hinted at a big announcement on his Instagram story, over a year after he departed This Morning.

The TV presenter, 62, has largely remained out of the spotlight since he left the ITV show which he hosted for over 20 years.

He returned to social media in May, exactly a year on from his high-profile exit from the show after he admitted he had lied about having an affair with a younger colleague and amid an alleged feud with his former co-star Holly Willoughby, 43.

He has since kept up with regular posts, including a recent port of him in a sunflower field, saying he was in his ‘happy place’.

As for his TV appearances, the father-of-two has only offered two interviews since his shock departure.

But now the TV star has teased major news.

In a new post to his Instagram story for his 2.7million followers Phillip posted a mysterious message onto a black background.

‘Watch this space… 9am,’ he wrote as the caption.

It is unclear exactly what he plans to announce but earlier this year sources claimed that he was planning a comeback and was being encouraged to returned to work.

‘Since he left This Morning, Phil has been held up by the support of friends like Ant, Dec and Alison Hammond,’ one insider told The Sun.

Although TV execs have allegedly contacted Schofield about a possible return, the source added at the time: ‘Phil is still shell-shocked by everything that happened last year and is happy at the moment to focus on rebuilding his life with the support of his friends and family.’
