Popular BBC Personality Allegedly Paid 17 Year Old For Sexual Imagery

Quote:

The BBC has said it is taking “very seriously” allegations that one of its top presenters paid a teenager tens of thousands of pounds for sexual images.

British tabloid newspaper The Sun reported on Friday night that the unnamed male star was off air while the BBC investigates the issue.

The newspaper alleged that the presenter had given the teenager more than £35,000 ($45,000) in return for explicit pictures. It said the exchanges started in 2020 when the teenager was aged 17.

BBC stars Jeremy Vine and Rylan Clark have been forced to deny that they are the high-profile presenter accused of paying a teenager for sexual images.

Twitter users have been speculating wildly about the identity of the individual after The Sun reported that an unnamed male star had given a teen more than £35,000 ($45,000) in return for explicit pictures.

Vine’s name was trending in the UK at one point, while Clark was also accused. The Radio 2 hosts brushed off the allegations in seperate tweets on Saturday afternoon.

The presenter has been named, Hue Edwards, the BBC's flagship newsreader (who announced the death of the Queen), his wife outed him as he has suffered a mental breakdown and is now in hospital.

Despite the media frenzy, nothing that has come out so far has been illegal, and needless to say any criminal investigations currently are on pause or dropped. BBC is conducting an investigation of course though...
