The Dancing On Ice host has reportedly been spending all his time off work with his 72-year-old father Brian at the Royal Brompton Hospital, London.
According to The Sun, Schofield has slept on a camp bed in Brian's ward for most of the last month.
A hospital source said: "It has been heart-warming to see Phillip caring for his dad. It’s an inspiration.
"One minute he’d be giving a flawless performance on Dancing On Ice and 40 minutes later he’d be climbing into a put-up bed by his dad’s side. It’s obvious they share a deep bond."
Schofield is on compassionate leave from This Morning this week.
A show spokesperson commented: "Phillip’s father has been very ill. The family have been with him constantly and he is now home."
