Phillip Schofield has been dumped by ‘We Buy Any Car’ after the queue jumping controversy.
The This Morning presenter experienced a gobsmacking amount of backlash after it emerged that he and his co-host Holly Willoughby didn’t have to queue to see the Queen’s coffin like everyone else.
Now, weeks after the controversy, Schofield has been dealt a new blow after it has been revealed We Buy Any Car have decided to part ways with him.
A source told The Sun:
“The We Buy Any Car ads are among the most regularly shown on telly — everyone knows them and the little tune that goes with it.
“It’s a massive deal, worth seven figures, but next week they’re shooting a new campaign and Phil’s not involved in it.
“There’s clearly a feeling within the company that he’s just not the right fit for the future and his contract will be allowed to expire. It has been a very successful partnership but it’s time for a change.”
The car company plans to shoot new ads without Schofield, and he has been removed from their website.
