ITV in huge shake-up as under-18s ‘banned’ from working on This Morning following Phillip Schofield scandal

He left after an 'unwise but not illegal' affair with a younger staff member

ITV has implemented some key changes on This Morning after Phillip Schofield‘s affair with a “much younger” male colleague, it’s been reported.

Phillip left ITV under a cloud back in May 2023 after his “unwise but not illegal” affair with a This Morning runner was revealed.

As a result of the scandal, it’s now understood ITV has put new rules in place. One of the rules ‘bans’ under-18s from working on the show. It’s also claimed that it’s been made more difficult for staff to help out friends and family members as part of a ‘nepotism ban’.
