Phillip Schofield swigs from a HUGE bottle of gin during boozy night in at family home

PHILLIP Schofield became the envy of gin lovers everywhere last night after taking a swig from a HUGE bottle during a boozy night in at home.

The 57-year-old This Morning presenter took to his Instagram Stories on Saturday night to update fans on what he was doing with his down time.

Phil shared a video of himself stood in his impressive kitchen, making a gin and tonic with a massive bottle of liquor.

As he poured, he had the words "I mean...f*** it" written across the bottom.

After mixing his drink, he held it to his lips before immediately putting it back down and picking up the bottle instead and taking a swig.

Phil was dressed casually for the boozy session in a white T-shirt and dark comfy trousers.

The drinks came just days after Phil celebrated wife Steph's 56th birthday in lockdown.

The couple's two daughters Ruby and Molly shared pictures of their mum enjoying homemade cupcakes and glasses of mimosas as her loved ones decorated the home with gold balloons.

"Happy birthday to the best mummy ever," shared Molly while Ruby added: "Happy birthday mumma."

Their birthday was a nice distraction from the ongoing pandemic that has seen the Schofield family forced to self-isolate as the country deals with the coronavirus.

Phil is still going into work to host This Morning with Holly Willoughby and the pair were forced to explain why they are still hosting the ITV show amid coronavirus lockdown.

After Boris Johnson announced emergency lockdown measures, the hosts said they have been classed as "essential workers" and have a role to play in helping the public.

Sitting far apart as they implemented social distancing, the pair explained they have been classed as "essential workers" and have a role to play in helping the public.
