Fern Britton insists she will be 'kind' when spilling secrets about Phillip Schofield as she enters the Celebrity Big Brother house


The presenter, 66, became a household name hosting This Morning alongside Philip, 61, from 1999 to 2009, when she was replaced by Holly Willoughby, 43.

'She actually blames Philip Scofield for her losing her job and felt he had a lot to do with the fact she got pushed out for a younger model, she's not afraid to speak out now and she's not taking any prisoners. 'She feels she's had a rough time recently - she's openly spoken about her gastric band and also got divorced from husband of 20 years, Phil Vickery', the source added. Fern is reportedly seeing Celebrity Big Brother as a career relaunch after her split from her husband Phil Vickery in 2020 after twenty years of marriage (pictured together in 2017)
