The TV star announced his book, titled Life’s What You Make It, at the start of July and explained that he had wanted to write a memoir for some time.

He also admitted he had written the first line ‘when [he] was 14’ and said it was a ‘deeply emotional’ experience to write it.

In both a video and its caption, Phil explained: ‘After being asked many times, and after many years of wanting to, I have written my autobiography.

‘I wrote the first line of the book, in my head, when I was about 14. It took me until 2017 for me to finally write the first chapter and then I stopped because the time wasn’t right.

‘It has certainly been something of a work in progress! Over the years I have been making notes of the stories and events of my life that I thought would tell my story.

‘Finally, in Lockdown, I knew that all the pieces of the jigsaw had been put into place and I was ready to write – that and a new discovery… lots of free time!  

‘It has been a fascinating experience, both immense fun and deeply emotional. Finally, after all these years, I’m happy it’s gone from my head, to the page.’

Phillip concluded by saying he had ‘been honest’ and ‘been me’ in the autobiography, as he urged his followers to pre-order the book.

In a follow-up to his statement about being gay in February, 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.’

Phillip is married to wife Stephanie and the couple are parents to Molly, 27, and Ruby, 24.
