Phillip Schofield takes his dog Alfie for a walk with a friend as rumours surrounding his comeback deepen after TV pals showed their support
Daily Mail
It comes after Phillip was snapped in London in early May looking relaxed as he laughed and joked with close pal Dec and his wife Ali Astall.
He had reportedly just enjoyed a four-hour dinner with ITV’s golden boy at a restaurant close to their homes when they were spotted in hysterics.
Phillip followed that up days later by ending his social media blackout of nearly a year by reigniting his Instagram with a sweet photo of Alfie watching Formula One.
Daughters Ruby, 27, and Molly, 30, as well as This Morning co-host Josie Gibson raced to like the post within minutes in a clear sign of support.
And his beloved daughter Molly is now his publicist after she quit the talent agency that once represented her father.
PR guru Mark Borkowski says his tepid return to the public eye has come after a year away to disappear and get himself together.
Calling him a rare talent, Mr Borkowski said: ‘He’s testing the waters. But audiences are very forgiving.’
Phillip told the BBC in an emotional interview last June the affair had finished his career and revealed that the fallout had left him feeling suicidal.
