Phillip Schofield cashes in as seven-figure fortune revealed despite not working for over a year after This Morning axe
PHILLIP Schofield’s huge seven-figure fortune has been revealed despite his axe from This Morning last year.
The 62-year-old cut ties with ITV and This Morning after confessing to an affair with a much younger colleague.
But Phil is still earning and cash reserves at his Fistral Productions company were topped up by £400,000 between November 2022 and November 2023.
The total now sits at £1,230,300 and he is also sitting on £964,136 worth of expected earnings, reported as “debtors on the books”.
After allowing for bills at £56,678, Phil retained a £2,137,758 fortune in his TV firm.
Fistrals’ new accounts were signed off by Phil’s wife Stephanie on Tuesday, and filed overnight at Companies House.
The former couple also own Fistral Properties and according to latest account it owned £829,000 worth of property.
This week Phil made a surprise return to social media and just hours later was snapped walking his dog Alfie.
He has appeared to be on the comeback trail in recent weeks after being seen laughing and joking with ITV royalty Declan Donnelly on a night out.
Phil made an unceremonious exit from his presenting duties in May last year, and ended his long time working partnership with Holly Willoughby, after it emerged Phillip had dated a much younger member of This Morning staff.
In an interview that followed shortly afterwards, Phillip described the relationship with the 19-year-old as “unwise but not illegal“.
Friends have been pushing for Phil to return to the spotlight, restarting the career that saw him become one of the country’s most recognisable stars.
A source said: “Since he left This Morning, Phil has been held up by the support of friends like Ant, Dec, and Alison Hammond.
“They have all been rallying around him and their support, especially from Dec who is such a good friend, has really helped Phil.
“Some TV executives have been in touch with Phil about a possible return and his friends have told him he should consider it.
“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.”
