The sun is the most deplorable paper; the mother going to them doesn’t give me “poor mother” vibes. It gives me “make a quick fortune from a paper that won’t fact check anything as long as they sell papers”
That's an interesting point.I’m wondering if the mother believed it to be a famous BBC star but it could have been someone pretending to be him?
There is currently no proof he has done anything wrong so it’s hardly surprisingAmazed at the amount of people making excuses for HE just because his public image up until know have been clean and family friendly. Reminds me of Jimmy Saville
You get a heart just for your user name...My thoughts were similar
Young person gets into online thing with presenter
Young person decides to bribe presenter
£35k and 3 years later Young persons mother steps in and alerts the scum about the money
Young person realises if this all comes out they will be in trouble for bribery and tries to quell the rumours
This is like Inception, if Huw Edwards' bumhole had a supporting role.That's an interesting point.
According to The Sun, the celeb only contacted the son yesterday to defuse the situation. Perhaps the son was completely oblivious to the Mother's complaint until then? I don't imagine current affairs are a high priority for a 20 year old crack addict.The youngsters denial clears nothing up and just creates more questions. Why wait several days to announce it's untrue? Why not straight away? Why would your mother make it all up? Why would the Sun publish an article without evidence? Why are the police involved? Why was the presenter suspended by the BBC if there was no strong evidence?
I think going to press without acknowledging the rebuttal email from the young person was a bit iffy.I know The Sun are scummy but surely they wouldn’t push this story against a heavyweight household name if they didn’t have evidence
I can’t stand The Sun, since I’m from Liverpool so I really hope that they’ve done their usual gutter press story and that they get sued big time for this. Hoping that the young person is ok too and that they’re telling the truth.If the Sun has evidence then it needs to stick its money where its mouth is and release it.
Their concerns have always been the drug use, not that the person was 17 when it all began though
Not sure they "can", but I wouldn't be that shocked if they do.So can the sun now print his name and publish their evidence?
Samantha Janus’ brother, Hugh.Who's playing Huw's arse???
S’mae! I often channel cheat on Derek with ITV Wales Weather’s lovely Ruth tooAlso can I tell you something if you were to ask most Welsh people, Derek Brockway would trump Huw Edwards in the national hero stakes. Bet no one outside of gods country has heard of him though
Me too.You know what? I’m quite happy finishing the day under the impression that Huw is not a nonce.
BIB - because the Scum is an absolute shit rag that would publish anything to sell a few copies/get a few clicks on their website.The youngsters denial clears nothing up and just creates more questions. Why wait several days to announce it's untrue? Why not straight away? Why would your mother make it all up? Why would the Sun publish an article without evidence? Why are the police involved? Why was the presenter suspended by the BBC if there was no strong evidence?
He has to take some responsibility for his ‘unwise but not illegal’ dirty little secret surely. Perhaps he should have thought about his wife and family and his high profile career before paying a young man for explicit photos. He took a risk in engaging in that type of activity, it’s now backfired. Was it really worth it? I have very little sympathy for him tbh.Let’s just say that Huw hasn’t paid anyone off and this whole thing is just a fabrication stirred up by a troubled mother… Can you imagine how awful a situation Huw is in now? Career potentially ruined, dignity lost, relationship with his wife and children ruined. It doesn’t bear thinking about.
