Phil shared a sweet clip to Instagram showing Pat reading a birthday card from Tim saying he could not come, unaware that Tim had actually crept up behind her.

When she turns her head and sees her son, she shouts: “Oh my God!”

Others said they were pleased to see Tim looking so well after he was hospitalised in 2015 with an unknown condition.

Last year, Phillip shared a photo of himself and Tim at the Bristol Royal Infirmary after they returned to the hospital to thank the staff who cared for him.

Phillip told fans: “When I walked through this ICU door in Nov 2015 our world was in bits and Tim was in big trouble inside … Today BOTH brothers stood outside with such admiration and thanks to the incredible team.”

Earlier in the day, Phil and  This Morning co-star Holly Willoughby, 37, had wished Pat a very happy birthday on live TV.

Holly had said: “Happy birthday Mrs Schofield! Have a lovely day, hope he spoils you rotten.”

Phillip also shared two photos to Instagram to mark the occasion, including one taken while Pat was wing-walking for This Morning last year!

Pat became the oldest lady in the country to do the loop-the-loop while standing on the outside of a plane.

Phillip had done the same challenge in 2016 to mark the anniversary of the Duke of Edinburgh’s Award Challenge & Adventure.
