After his cheating scandal was exposed, Phillip Schofield’s television career was in disarray, but new details about his earnings have now been revealed, demonstrating how much he’s had to step back from the spotlight.
Philip Schofield’s telly career may have hit the buffers, but fresh details about the former This Morning host’s earnings have come to light. The 63-year-old presenter, who bravely came out as gay in 2020, remains wedded to his wife Stephanie despite the furore surrounding his relationship with a younger colleague which brought his career to a halt and led to his exit from This Morning in 2023.
Despite Phil’s career taking a nosedive following the scandal two years ago, his financial ties and family bond with Stephanie remain solid. New figures reported by MailOnline reveal that Phil pocketed a mere £20,000 last year, a far cry from the seven-figure salary he once raked in from ITV.
According to records from his business, Fistral Productions, the company’s tax filings for the year that ended in November 2024 indicate a decline in income.

Despite his career bleakness, the company still boasts net assets of £2.1 million, which helps him remain financially secure. Stephanie, his wife since 1993, is still listed as a director, and her name appears in recent records rather than his.
Moreover, the accounts reveal the firm is owed nearly £900,000 by Fistral Properties, another business venture jointly owned by the former couple, reports the Daily Record.
Phil continues to wear his wedding ring and enjoy his family home despite facing public condemnation for his actions. Despite admitting to being gay when he married Stephanie, he still cares about her.
Phil once described his “perfect life” as a husband and father as a “perfect life,” saying he didn’t want anything to compromise their happiness.
The TV presenter, however, was aware of the serious harm he had caused to his wife Stephanie, and said, “That’s what makes this so difficult. I’m aware that you’re not the ideal person, but Steph and I still adore each other. More likely, I suppose.
Stephanie explained to the media that she didn’t want her husband to “fall any further” than he already did and that, despite everything, she still believes that “the love is still very much there.”
Phil made a fleeting television comeback last year, but he has mostly stayed out of the public eye since his dramatic collapse more than two years ago.
Last September, he and his daughter Molly and lifelong mate Scott Brown were spotted dining al fresco at a hotel in Soho.
Following a day of boozing, the former This Morning presenter was recently caught stumbling onto the pavement and clinging to an unidentified man in London.
