This Morning's Phillip Schofield almost died – and missed England's 2-1 win – following an incident with a bee that nearly sent him into anaphylactic shock.

The presenter revealed that he stepped on a bee last night (June 18), which stung him on the sole of his foot, and the 56-year-old presenter said that he felt like he was descending down a tunnel.

Speaking about the incident on today's show, Phillip said: 'My wife was ready with the EpiPen and she was saying, "Do I do it now? Do I do it now?"'

'And you only do it if you can't administer it yourself?'questioned Holly, adding: 'I think I'd be tempted to go, "Urgh, just have it".'

Phil noted: 'I think Steph [Phil's wife] was disappointed because you've got to go in via the bum cheek.'

But thankfully Phil explained that he's okay now.

'Yeah, I'm okay, I'm fine now. I would've missed the match and I'd have missed Love Island!'

This Morning continues weekdays from 10.30am.
