I think the fact that HE has now removed his IG account speaks volumes, he won’t be on the News tonight and likely never again. He’s only got himself to blame.

He will be back on after the lawyers letter. The victim has said it’s a load of horse shit.

I’m wondering if the mother believed it to be a famous BBC star but it could have been someone pretending to be him?

She saw bank transaction apparently from this person so I'm guessing it has his name and details on those

It being The Sun and this being a total mess... not sure how to feel about this continuing for several days

Hopefully they stream any coming trials on Court TV

If you read their article they say they ran the story based on interviews with and sworn statements from the parents. Doesn't sound like concrete evidence to me.

The family/mother did hand over evidence to the BBC but I'm guessing it's not that strong if the police aren't involved yet

I'm not saying I'm sure HE hasn't done anything, but I really don't think that taking a social media account down proves anything either way. People, even victims, often take down their socials during a media storm because they're getting thousands of messages, thousands of people are combing through every post they've written in ten years, their devices must be giving them a hundred beeps a minute and they must feel really overwhelmed by it all.

Graham Norton took his Twitter down when all he'd said was that he might not have JK Rowling on his podcast again. Stephen Fry has taken his down several times when he can't stand get nasty comments.

(Please please for the love of God, no one derail this thread into talk about JKR or gender issues. I'm literally just saying people take their socials down for reasons other than being a criminal.)

I get that, but why only Instagram but not Twitter? That doesn’t make sense to me, unless deleting the Instagram account anonymises some spicy DMs that you had exchanged with people… and that was your preferred medium for exchanging said spicy DMs…

You know what? I’m quite happy finishing the day under the impression that Huw is not a nonce.

Me too.
However it all ends there will be forever question marks over certain people's heads. Too much has gone on for too long.

We have absolutely no idea what relations were between the older man and the younger person. As to "very young": this is simply not true is it. The over-egging of this particular pudding is not helping us piece together a clearer picture of the reality. Too many assumptions based on some misplaced morality about an older man buying content from someone younger. People are projecting far too much on all this in absence of more information.

I'm not referring to this particular situation, of which I know nothing. I'm merely sharing my opinion that I find age difference relationships of such magnitude worrying .
