So the silver fox on 12:23 - Feb 7 with 2647 views | this_charming_man | I read his statement. All about him wasnt it. Now he’ll inevitably start a relationship with a man and he’ll be lauded for bravery. What about his wife of 27 years? She’s just lost her husband, father of her children. If he left her for another women then he’d been the devil, because Hes gay then he’s so brave. | |

I wondered how long it would take for the homophobes to appear I think you will find he is still the father to those children pal, that doesnt suddenly get erased ffs | | | |

what's homophonic about it? Has he been cheating on his wife with men? We don't know but he hasn't suddenly decided he's gay. What now happens if and when he starts a relationship with a man? If that wonderful and brave even though he would end his marriage with his wife to do so. Had he done that with a women he'd be cheating scum. | |

Well said Saint22! anyone who even slightly strays from woke orthodoxy and fails to laud Phil as probably the bravest guy on the planet at the moment should be thoroughly 'cancelled' including telling their employer so that they lose their livelihood. It's the only way they will learn. | | | |

If not 'homophobic' would you accept 'judgemental'? You say his statement is all about him but there is lots in there about his wife and daughters and his acknowledgement of the pain he has caused. And at this stage, we know nothing about any extra-marital relationships. He's gay. He's been lying about it and now he's being honest about it. That's it, isn't it? I'd give him credit for his honesty, sympathy for him and his family, and then let them sort it all themselves from here - including any judgement. None of my business. | |

If he’d been brave, he would either have : a) not married a woman in the first place, stayed single, been himself, then had a civil partnership later in life if he wanted, b) seen a councillor, got therapy, kept it all quiet, taken obscure holidays abroad to satisfy his desires, re-checked his marriage vows. His comment, “I had to do this for me, and my head, I can say I’m proud of myself” The fact that he has come out shows that he doesn’t care that much about his family, couldn’t or wouldn’t keep it quiet, and that his marriage vows meant little. Why did he even get married, or is he just ‘discovering himself’ in later life? His family must be gutted, despite their apparent feelings to the contrary. It reminds me of Lennox Lewis’s manager Frank Maloney, and the fact that he just didn’t want to keep it quiet. | |

I completely agree. “I had to do this for me, and my head, I can say I’m proud of myself” like you say, all about him. The person I feel sorry for is his wife, 27 years and although she's sticking by him she must feel humiliated and betrayed. But of course political correctness means anyone who says that is homophobic. | |
