Phillip Schofield’s eldest daughter Molly Schofield recently returned to social media to share a glimpse of her 30th birthday celebrations. 

Phillip’s, 61, youngest daughter Ruby Schofield, 27, shared a collage of pictures of them together on her Instagram stories with the text ‘Happy 30th birthday for yesterday @mollyschofe.’ Molly re-shared the post on to her Instagram account with the caption ‘Love you so damn much.'

The birthday girl also posted a snap of the dessert she ordered at a restaurant. The chefs wrote 'happy birthday' in chocolate sauce and placed a candle into a raspberry.

Molly recently shared an image of herself and YMU Group work pals Emma Rigarlsford and Martha Atack who is the younger sister of TV personality Emily Atack. The caption read “What a weekend!!! Officially ready to enter my 30s.”

The former This Morning presenter is known to be very close with his two daughters and has often shared his own gushing birthday post on his own social media. Back in January he shared a birthday tribute to Ruby on social media which read "Happy birthday @rubyschofe. You are the sunshine in all our lives." However, this year Phillip hasn't publicly acknowledged Molly's milestone birthday and is continuing his social media silence. 

Phillip has not posted anything on his Instagram account since early May which was just before the news broke that he had an inappropriate affair with a younger male colleague. The disgraced host has only changed his bio to read the sentence “Nothing beats kindness, it sits quietly beyond all things”

In an interview with Hello magazine back in 2018, Phillip revealed that it was actually his daughters that managed his social media accounts. He said  "I don't post anything without their say-so.”

Phillip hasn’t posted anything on his Twitter account since December 2021 and has also changed his Twitter profile to read “I don’t tweet anymore or check my @‘s sorry. Thanks for all the fun originally though.”
