But what evidence are you looking for?
Even Schofield agrees that he met the lad when he was a child. They evidently kept in touch (which is already a little weird). Schofield then helps the lad get a job on the show which Schofield was the main presenter of. Why? Were there no other candidates more suitable?
Some time after the lad turned 18, their affair began (this is what Schofield tells us). I believe the legal age of consent in these matters is 16 but a high profile and media savvy celebrity such as Schofield will well understand how the optics of that would look.
There's enough smoke to suggest that Schofield has had the lad encircled with a team of lawyers for some time now in the official capacity of "supporting him" whilst others may say "controlling the narrative". In fact, it seems that Schofield has had a super injunction to prevent details of this being leaked in the press.
Grooming can be sexual or financial or BOTH. One of the signals of grooming is "becoming a mentor to the young person, making them think they are someone who can help them or teach them things"
In that photo the lad does look younger then 15 and although I cannot prove it I am sure there are others out there who would know.
I am trying to understand your logic. You claim Schofield is "immediately being hounded" yet rumours about this story were rife over three years ago.

I will ask you again. What evidence are you looking for? If a consensual relationship occurred between Schofield and the lad then only those two would know if any laws had been broken so does that mean we just leave the story alone because there is "no evidence"??
There's something dodgy about Schofield's best mate "Simon Schofield" (no relation) as there is a photo of the lad looking adoringly at him.
And finally, let's not forget that Phil Schofield's brother has recently been imprisoned for paedophilia.
Lets try and remember that it is a fundamental principle of justice in the Uk that a person is innocent until proven guilty. Something that is increasingly being forgotten.
Looking at a few of your gems.
“And finally, let's not forget that Phil Schofield's brother has recently been imprisoned for paedophilia.”
WTF – when has how our family acts been evidence?
“There's something dodgy about Schofield's best mate "Simon Schofield"”
Right lets get the noose and hang him to a tree as his mate is dodgy.
“In that photo the lad does look younger then 15 and although I cannot prove it I am sure there are others out there who would know.”
Inconvenient that the lad in a photo (a photo I have no idea of the providence of) is indeterminate age so lets assume somebody has evidence of what age.
“There's enough smoke to suggest that Schofield has had the lad encircled with a team of lawyers for some time now in the official capacity of "supporting him" whilst others may say "controlling the narrative". In fact, it seems that Schofield has had a super injunction to prevent details of this being leaked in the press.”
He may, or may not, have been taking legal action so again lets hang him. I mean why should he worry about the publicity when people are so reasonable and all wait for evidence and facts before getting the pitch forks out.
“One of the signals of grooming is "becoming a mentor to the young person, making them think they are someone who can help them or teach them things"”
One of the signals not proof. Every teacher, Scout leader and Youth Club staff member should be castrated and locked up on that basis.
Sorry but you are an idiot and it is a great shame that the power of social media and the internet give you power to ruin peoples lives.
Now I don’t know whether he grooms kids and is a pedo, he might be. If he is I really hope it is proven and they lock him up for the rest of his life. But crap like you come out with is not evidence.
