Following Phillip Schofield's departure and revelation that he had an affair with a younger runner on This Morning, ITV has updated it's policy on 'work relationships' between staff
ITV has updated it's policy on work relationships, months after Phillip Schofield admitted to having an "unwise but not illegall" affair with a younger male colleague.
It has now been reported that if ITV staff, along with freelancers, consultants, those on work experience, and contractors fail to declare a relationship then they face disciplinary action which could include termination of work, according to The Sunday Times. In a statement to the PA news agency, an ITV spokesperson said: “ITV has had in place a policy on relationships at work since October 2022. Like all of our people policies we keep them under review and update them periodically.The document reportedly includes: “If a personal relationship exists between you and another colleague , both parties must disclose this to the company at the earliest opportunity.
Earlier this month, Phillip's long-time co-host, Holly Willoughby, announced she would also be leaving This Morning, after a tumultuous year in the role.
