Vanessa Feltz warns Phillip Schofield’s TV return is ‘a risk’ but hopes for ‘successful’ comeback

OHMYGOSSIP — Vanessa Feltz hopes Phillip Schofield’s return to TV is a “success”, but admitted it is a “risk”.
The 62-year-old TV presenter has wished the former ‘This Morning’ host “all the luck in the world” after it was revealed he is to take part in brand-new Channel 5 show ‘Cast Away’, which will see him marooned on a desert island for 10 days armed with nothing but camera gear and a lip balm.
She told Metro.co.uk: “I just think whatever he does to make him feel better, I wish him all the luck in the world.
“Obviously I haven’t seen it, so I don’t know how he copes in isolation for all those days, and whether it turns out to be a good thing or a bad thing.
“Any reality TV show anyone does is a risk, that’s the whole point, you could come out brilliantly and everyone could fall in love with you and you could impress them to the max.
“But he is a very seasoned TV professional, and I really hope that it’s the right thing for him, and it does him the power of good, that he personally enjoys it and that the viewers enjoy it and that it makes him feel better and it makes everybody feel better. That’s what I would like. I’d like it to be a success.”
Phillip has been away from our screens for the last 16 months after he quit ‘This Morning’ and then ITV altogether after admitting to an “unwise, but not illegal” affair with a younger, male colleague.
On ‘Cast Away’, he is expected to open about his personal life since departing the brunchtime show.
Vanessa admitted she hasn’t been in touch with Phillip since his TV return was announced, because she doesn’t want to “jump on the band wagon”.
She added: “I just think, don’t jump on the band wagon of messaging, and I don’t like it when people do that to me, and it happens to me a lot.”
