Eamonn Holmes has taken a fresh swipe at his former This Morning colleague Phillip Schofield, accusing him of telling "a lot of lies".

Last week Schofield, 61, stepped down from all of his presenting roles at ITV with immediate effect when he admitted to lying about having an affair with a male colleague aged in his 20s several years ago.

Holmes is no stranger to criticising Schofield, who was the subject of a formal complaint from Holmes's wife Ruth Langsford when he cut her off mid-sentence during a live exchange on the ITV show.

In an in-depth interview with his GB News colleague Dan Wootton last night, Holmes said of Schofield: "He's either deluded, or he's lying. And he has admitted he tells lies, and he tells a lot of lies.

"In life, I have always had this belief that a lie unchallenged becomes the truth.

"So although I don't want to stand up to Schofield constantly pointing out where he's lying, I feel I have to. Is he delusional? Is he so detached from real life at This Morning that he didn't realise what was going on? I'll often say this to Ruth - maybe he believes all this stuff.

"Maybe he did not see what went on, actually, because there's something wrong with him. But he is the chief narcissist.

"He is a complete and utter dyed in the wool narcissist, everything is about him."
