The TV presenter is extremely close to his daughters despite the breakdown of his and Stephanie’s marriage.

Phillip announced their shock split in 2020, revealing on This Morning that he is gay.

At the time, he told co-host Holly Willoughby that it ‘hadn’t been easy’ telling Stephanie and his girls his true feelings.

But he added: “But they were, they are, amazing in their love and support.

“I told them and they jumped up and gave me a hug, gave Steph a hug, and said, ‘It’s okay, it’s okay’.”

Meanwhile, this week Phillip and Holly will be off air from This Morning as they enjoy half term with their families.

But following the news of their week-long departure, Phillip managed to rile fans.

Having watched an ad for Pink’s live appearance, Holly told viewers: “Someone’s completely upset about what just happened.”

Phil then exclaimed: “No way! I’ve been here for nearly 200 years and she’s the one person I want to meet.”

“Oh,” Holly chipped in. “Harsh,” Phil complained.

Fans, however, weren’t so supportive of his gripe and social media quickly erupted.

One viewer asked: “That’s what comes when you pretend you have five year olds and need the school holidays off.”
