The Channel 4 presenter has issued a lengthy and poignant statement
The Location, Location, Location presenter said his parents were killed in a car crash after a tragic accident on the family farm saw them drive into a river. Phil's dad Richard, 89, and mum Anne, 82, were on their way to a pub for lunch on Friday when their car veered off the access road into a shallow tributary river running through their estate in Littlebourne, Kent.
"As a family we are all trying to hold onto the fact Mum and Dad went together and that neither will ever have to mourn the loss of the other one. Which is a blessing in itself." "So much so that Mum said to me only a week ago that she had resigned to thinking "now it looks like we will probably go together". And so they did. That was what God had planned for them - and it was a good plan."
He said: "As many farmers do - my brother had a penknife and so was able to cut the seat belts - he pulled them out of the river but they never regained consciousness. Although desperately sad and shocked beyond all belief - all family are clear that if there can ever be such a thing as having a "good end" - this was it."
