There has been no apathy here.

The reality is, Philip Schofield was until very recently represented by a very powerful talent agency that has the ability to deny access to its clients to any newspaper, magazine or TV channel that ran ‘unfavourable’ reports on anyone on its roster. Everyone in the media knew there was a whif of scandal here but it wasn’t worth the blowback to report it, especially as what’s presented here is definitely salacious but not (demonstrably) illegal. Schofield and his agency have now parted ways and it is safe for newspapers to go to town on him without losing the ability to get access to many of the other big names in entertainment presently gracing our TV screens.
