Original Note:
Schofield’s affair partner was not 10. The boy “was 15”. The relationship is not alleged to have started until he was an adult. https://www.standard.co.uk/news/uk/phillip-schofield-affair-colleague-15-years-old-itv-this-morning-b1084206.html Schofield has not defended his brother over his conviction https://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/crime/phillip-schofield-brother-sentencing-child-sex-offences-b2341994.html Disclaimer: This is not a defence of Schofield, but these are the facts as of now
