A Supportive Co-host

Kirstie Allsopp, Phil's co-host on Channel 4's Location, Location, Location, spoke about his "lovely, lovely family" during a recent interview on the BBC's News podcast. She revealed that Phil's sister got married the day before, and the family decided to have lunch at the same pub where their parents were headed when the accident occurred.
