Former This Morning star Phillip Schofield shared a heartfelt tribute to his 'best friend' following her death
Phillip Schofield told of his heartbreak as he announced his mum Pat has died. The former This Morning star, 62, took to Instagram to share the news this evening . Phillip shared a selection of photos of himself and his mum as he wrote: 'Today, at 3pm and after a heartbreaking weekend, my magnificent mum decided it was time to go to her beloved Brian. 'Over three days, we held her, loved her, hugged her and said everything that needed to be said.
Your love and care has been our saviour.' The TV star did not confirm his mother's cause of death, the Mirror Online reports. Phillip had previously discussed his mother's health woes during his time on a remote island filming Channel 5 series Cast Away, which aired last month. The former presenter confessed his shock when both his mum and brother were diagnosed with the same health condition.
