Inside Holly and Phil's TOXIC FALLOUT

Holly Willoughby talks about ‘tough times’ with pal Phillip Schofield

- 

Holly Willoughby and Phillip Schofield’s relationship regularly makes headlines, often with claims that she and 59-year-old Phil have suffered a major fallout and, at one point, were enduring a ‘toxic’ feud.

But the pair have always remained tight-lipped on the reports, until now.

While appearing on close friend Fearne Cotton’s Happy Place podcast, host Fearne questioned, ‘I was watching from afar when you’ve got every person in the press saying that you and Phillip are having a “tough time”.’ To which Holly responded, ‘It’s a funny one, isn’t it? Don’t get me wrong, like, it is difficult. That was a particularly difficult time. Of course. For many reasons.

‘But I remember having this conversation with Phil at the time, it was like: “But we know”.’

However, with rumours of tension and fallouts – thought to be fuelled by Phil’s jealousy over Holly’s rising stardom – what has gone on and is everything as rosy as it seems?

No smoke without fire

Holly has done her best to quash any speculation of a fallout with Phil, explaining, ‘I have to believe that as long as you know inside, and you know the truth, you know your truth, then everything’s got to be OK. It has to be. And I have to hold on to that. I can’t start questioning that.’
