‘If ya can’t cut it, slick it’: Phillip Schofield, 58, shows off his ‘lockdown hair options’ after gelling back his wild silver locks

After six weeks of lockdown, many Britons are facing decisions about what to do with their increasingly out-of-control hair.

And Phillip Schofield is no different as he showed off his hilarious hair styling attempts on Instagram.

The TV personality, 58, shared his ‘lockdown hair options’, with one smart and styled and the other with his hair unkempt and out of control.

In the first black and white snap, Phillip looked smart as he slicked back his hair while wearing a buttoned-up polo shirt.

And in the second picture, the presenter appeared as if he had just woken up and smirked with his silver tresses spiked in all directions.

The This Morning host also posted his smart hair style on his Instagram stories where he captioned the black and white snap: ‘If ya can’t cut it, slick it.’

It is not the first time the Dancing On Ice presenter has updated his fans on the state of his hair. 

Phillip took to Snapchat earlier this week to add a close-up of his mane before adding ‘this is getting ridiculous’ alongside a pair of scissors. 

Phillip recently moved out of the £2million family home he shared with his wife Stephanie, and admitted that he ‘misses hugs’ on Monday’s episode of This Morning.

The presenter and his co-host Holly Willoughby spoke to Harry Potter star Miriam Margolyes about how she’s coping in lockdown.

Miriam, 78, said that she ‘needs people’ in her life and it’s ‘vital’ for her due to her extrovert personality.

To which Phillip admitted: ‘I miss hugs.’

With Miriam adding: ‘Oh I miss hugs so much. It’s difficult, I can’t hug myself as I am too fat to wrap my arms around myself. It’s what we miss.’

The star said that she is keeping in touch with her partner, Heather Sutherland, by using video call service Zoom.

The amusing insights come after the father-of-two revealed he is gay earlier this year.

He has since amicably moved out of the £2million family home in Oxford which he shared with Stephanie, his wife of 27 years, and their daughters Molly, 27, and Ruby, 24. 

Phillip is now living in a flat in London but it is not clear if his new home is temporary or permanent.

In February, when Schofield discussed his decision to come out, he insisted: ‘We’ll always be a family’ and it’s clear they remain close. 

He also insisted he still loves Steph as much as he did when they met ‘if not more’. 

Staff at the TV studios have been made aware of the star’s change of address, including the drivers who ferry him to and from the studio.

A source said: ‘There has been talk for weeks that Phillip isn’t living with Steph any more, that he had moved out for good and had a new home. He has a place in central London.

‘It’s not as big but it’s the beginning of a new life for him. It very much also seems as though their marriage could well be over.’

Schofield surprised fans on February 7 by issuing a statement on social media declaring that after 27 years of marriage, he was ‘coming to terms with the fact that I am gay’.

In a follow-up, he took his place on the This Morning sofa besides co-host Holly Willoughby to further pour his heart out.

Writing on Instagram about his decision to come out, he said: ‘With the strength and support of my wife and daughters, I have been coming to terms with the fact that I am gay.

‘My inner conflict contrasts with an outside world that has changed so very much for the better. Today, quite rightly, being gay is a reason to celebrate and be proud.’

He later admitted in a newspaper interview that it was too early to say if he and Steph would stay married.

‘It has taken me a long time to get here, I am not rushing to get to any other place,’ he said. 

‘We will always be a family… And where the wind blows us I don’t know. But I still love Steph as much as when we first met. More probably.’
