Phillip Schofield's media company has DOUBLE the earnings of TV wife Holly Willoughby's

Phillip Schofield has proved he’s the superstar of daytime TV as his media company is now worth a staggering £2.48 million – nearly double Holly Willoughby’s firm.

The 59-year-old presenter is said to be paid a six-figure salary by This Morning, but latest accounts for his firm Fistral Productions reveal that it has equity of £2,479,244 and £789,002 ‘cash at bank and in hand’.

Phillip’s firm paid corporation tax of £150,013 in the year ending November 20, according to recent accounts filed at Companies House on Wednesday.

With the tax rate being at 19 per cent, this suggests the presenter made close to £800,000 last year from his media work, minus expenses.

This even puts Holly’s earnings in the shade, as her own firm Roxy Media Ltd is worth £1,432,039, according to accounts filed last November. 

The firm paid £132,441 in corporation tax, which at 19 per cent suggests it made around £700,000, again, minus expenses.

During the pandemic, both Phillip and Holly worked as hard as ever and carried on with their daytime show throughout the various lockdowns.

Despite splitting with estranged wife Stephanie last year after coming out as gay, Phillip and his former spouse of 27 years still work as a solid duo. 

She is an equal partner in this company and they also run together a property investment firm, Fistral Properties, which shows assets of £839,428.

Both Holly and Phil – who began working on ITV’s This Morning together in the early 2000s – earn large amounts due to brand endorsements and book deals which are separate to their This Morning salaries.

The presenter set up his firm in 2010 and its nature of business is reported as ‘other business support service activities not elsewhere classified.’

Meanwhile, Holly’s business was set up in 2008 and she describes her firm as being concerned with ‘television programme production activities.’
