Following the statement, Philip was interviewed by his on-screen partner (and best friend), Holly Willoughby.
And there wasn't a dry eye in the house.
The emotional interview left us in tears, with Philip admitting that he couldn't have done it without Holly.
During their chat, he told Holly he had "never had any secrets" from her and their relationship had always been "honest and open".
Later in the interview Holly said: "Well whatever happens in the future, I'll be sat by your side."
She then gets him to move to sit right next to her, saying it's "where he should be".
She ended it with: "I'll be by your side forever." - we're crying.
And as is the norm with things like this, Twitter responded, applauding both Philip and Holly for the interview.
One follower tweeted:
"Saw half of it. The raw emotion and pure relief on Phillip's face. The love Holly has. That was very very well done. Not crass or insensitive. Just perfect."
Another tweet read:
"What a fantastic interview well done @hollywills and @Schofe the love you to share and how proud holly was of u was overwhelming I was crying like a baby xx."
