Phillip Schofield has held a vigil by his mother’s hospital bedside after the 87-year-old fell seriously ill.
The former This Morning presenter’s mother, Pat, has been treated for an unknown condition at a hospital in Cornwall for several days.
Following his controversial extra-marital affair with a younger male colleague, Phillip sought support from her at his ‘darkest moment’.
The pair were pictured hugging on a bench overlooking the sea in Newquay, Cornwall, last month.
A TV insider revealed how much the former TV presenter ‘adores’ his mother and he is trying to remain hopeful over her illness.

‘Given that his mother was the woman Phillip turned to in his hour of need, her illness is a particularly cruel twist of fate.’
This comes after the 61-year-old recently broke his cover for the first time in a month as he clutched his car keys, mobile phone and a vape.
Schofield was axed from the popular daytime television show on May 20 after spending 21 year there.
The scandal which ended his career centered around an affair he had with a runner who was more than 30 years his junior.
Holly Willoughby, who has kept her role presenting on This Morning, was last seen partying away at Glastonbury Festival.
The 42-year-old was spotted arriving at the hotly-anticipated festival by helicopter along with her husband Dan Baldwin.
