Phillip Schofield
Well done to Phillip Schofield for saying that he is gay and not afraid to come out the closet like so many people are. How many footballers in the Premiership right down to the lower leagues are gay and frightened to come out because of the abuse they will receive.

Why did he have to be so dramatic and announce it on live tv?

Why did he have to inform everyone I certainly don't want to know, after being married for 45 years do I need to inform the world I am heterosexual not that it is anyone's business only mine and the wife.
When it becomes compulsory do non conformists have to undergo a colostomy and have their ring sewn up.

I don't get the urge for attention seeking, sort it out with your family and carry on presenting, surely 99% of the population do not care which side of the bed you prefer.
Its hardly a shock.

His sexual orientation is of no concern to me, but he announces on live TV that he feels he has been living a lie, I truly hope that his wife and daughters can cope with this, because they have been living the same lie through no fault of their own

He looks terribly thin - I think there's more news to follow

How would you talk?

I'm assuming a tabloid has the story, so his hand was forced.
I too feel sorry for his wife and family. If they didn't already know, and his wife wasn't just a beard. There were rumours back in the 80s, as I recall.
Still can't figure out why it is newsworthy, apart from he's a 'sleb' so the media will make the most of it whatever he does. If it helps someone to feel less of an outsider, then it might have done some good. Can't see many middle-aged married men coming flying out of Narnia, though.
Shame it's a story at all, beyond one celebrity relationship breaking up.

If his wife and kids support him how does that work?, do they let him out one night a week, my first impression of this was it is some kind of tv experiment/stunt so they could drum up a subject for future discussion like he could say “ I was treated differently when the world thought I was gay” and so on, then I thought if he is coming to the end of his career for some reason ( yea he does look a bit thin, maybe it’s time to make money while he can) then he could concoct up some story to gain attention /money for the story or his new book and his family could be in on it.
I saw his interview on the news and feel somethings wrong with it ( apart from him being gay), something play acting or false like in his manner.
Maybe he is gay, who is his boyfriend then.

Hi Mick - Whatever it is that has made it necessary to make a public announcement - you can be sure his PR department are ahead of it! I find it very sad that Schofield believes that everyone will be upset about it - truth is, no-one cares apart from his own family.

What abuse?? There are many such people in the public eye - why should Schofield be any different?
