'His confession took me back to the moment that my entire world came crashing down when the husband told me that he was homosexual and had been living a lie'

“When I heard the news that Phillip Schofield had come out as gay, after 27 years of marriage, my reaction was not to feel happy for him, or to admire his bravery and honesty, as so many others seem to have done. Instead, I felt physically, violently sick.

Things were different 30 years ago

Slow news day, this was reported weeks ago...

Assume he only wanted to get married to further his career and squash any rumours he was gay. Feel desperately sorry for his wife who's wasted a large junk of her life being with a man who would never truly love her in the way she would of wanted.

But hey hes brave right?

What about any gay encounters during marriage and “hurts” caused .. a bit much celebration of him being brave!

I am disgusted that any gay person would marry a straight person 'knowing they were gay

matthewmcgreevy

Special as we knew already 25 years ago that he was gay.

How about a piece in the DT about his blanket gagging order on the real story coming out. Serious issues around safe guarding and correct conduct at best, noncing at worst. ITV and Holly Willabob up to their necks colluding in it as well

It does hurt...I lost my virginity to a gay man (I wasnt aware of this at the time) who was 12 years older, at 28 yes old, he should have known better...

Selfish sod Philip-I say.

If he'd announced that he realized he was attracted to other women rather than his wife of 27 years - I think he would be perceived in quite a different way. 😠

That also is true on gay women marrying straight men. In general if you are not sure about being straight say it to a partner of a serious relationship. Otherwise you are a bad person that lies to another person which claims love for notcool

This is true. But straight people should ask themselves why some gay men feel compelled to get married to a woman.

Great article.

Wait, he's not stunning and brave anymore?

Surely the headline is a little sexist? A gay woman could marry a straight man. Could this cause an equal level of heartache for families?

Charhodgson It is deceptive. Gays are a modern creation. Capitalism. Homosexual behavior always existed, but ppl weren't trapped in that sexuality & were expected to marry, produce a family, etc. To care about family, community, etc. Now we have a very self- centered, individualist society.

Wonder when the media will print why he really came out when he did

How dare you. This man and TV presenter, so therefore a type of deity and better than us mere mortals, is a HERO!

MatthewMcGreevy Click the hashtag and learn the truth

But how do the women have no sense of this?

if I had to live 27 years with her I would turn gay too

I am surprised that anyone else is surprised that he is gay ... It was kind of obvious that something was off about him and that he was not straight ... I have been watching him on TV for 30 years and could tell something was not right. How his wife could not tell puzzles me

Back in his days though I'm pretty sure being gay was illegal right?

When people buy telegraph they're not only fooling themselves that they are buying a newspaper, but they are also enabling a propaganda sheet

When gay men marry straight women it’s bend over time baby.

Today is different to 30 years ago, understanding is called for.

Bit different to the allegations floating around, why not investigate them?

Wow. Very shocking story.

The human being at the core remains the same.

🤣🤣🤣🤣

This is a revelation that this man may have used the cottage

I feel for his wife. And it's a shame he was he wasnt strong enough to come out earlier. But he obviously loves his wife and their grownup children.

Good god

How does Schofe know he’s gay ? Is he in love with a man ? Has he had a gay relationship? Or is it just a feeling, because he felt heterosexual for most of his life ? Maybe it was all those years with his hand up Gordon !!
