BILLIE Faiers was left squirming on the This Morning sofa as Phillip Schofield grilled her over how much of a discount she got on her wedding – which he claimed cost £229,000.
The 65-year-old silver fox had been busy with his calculator and revealed his findings in incredibly awkward scenes to Billie and her sister Sam.
Their chat went off the rails when Phillip whipped out a card and told her: “My God, you must be earning beautifully to be able to do this.”
He added: “This is the Kuramathi resort in the Maldives. So we had a look, if you were to stay there next Saturday it would be £650 a night.
“That would be £4,588 for a week for the superior beach villa. The whole week for 100 guests – £229,000. So you must have got a deal there.”
The awkward giggling was off the scale as 28-year-old Sam replied: “Not much of a deal.”
Undeterred, Phillip asked: “£229 grand for your wedding?”
Through what looked like a fixed smile, 29-year-old Billie conceded: “Yeah it wasn’t quite that.”
Phillip replied: “Right, so they did you a deal?”
She explained: “Because there was a large group of us we had the beach houses and split them in two.
“Two families would be in one beach house. It really helped us out with the rooms and stuff.”
“Yeah, that’s nice,” Phillip replied, with the air of someone who didn’t think it was remotely nice.
The awkwardness didn’t escape viewers at home, with one writing: “Feel like Billie and Sam are a bit uncomfortable at Phil asking them the price of the wedding .”
That may be the understatement of the day.
