BBC Presenter Scandal #3

[InTheDollsHouse]

Holy fuck!!

The young person’s lawyer has denied what the mother said!!!!!

I think it's important to remember that the victim is possibly still being manipulated by the presenter.

It's also important to remember that the presenter might actually be the true victim in all of this.

Just realised I also need:

Fiona Bruce: Vicky McClure
Jeremy Vine: Matthew Macfadyean

I hear Meghan Markle is looking for work.

Of course he’s deleted his Insta, it was full of pics with his mum etc. nobody would want that as meme fodder.

If Huw appears on the 10pm news tonight, it will be the biggest plot twist I've seen today.

But on a serious note though - if its proven that all this is BS, I hope he's doing OK. He's had a lot of issues regarding depression in his life.

Imagine if Huw was on the 10pm news and he was reporting on the scandal! That would be David Lynch-level weirdness.

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

 

[OnlyHereForTheLolz]

Amazed 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

 

[Tannadeechee]

Looking forward to the ITV drama about this. Who will Sheridan Smith play? The mother?

Who's playing Huw's arse???

 

[InTheDollsHouse]

What if the evidence the mother has given to the Sun is documents / information that is not hers to share?

Copies of bank statements, phone records, etc which belong to her ‘child’ who is in fact an adult, who has not consented to their data being shared.

The Sun cannot share that without consent of the data owner, can they? So they can’t publish the ‘evidence’.

A very large carpet has been lifted and the sweeping under it has begun!
This reminds me of schofield.
We will know nothing.

 

[NomDeGuerre]

Michael Sheen was born to play Huw!!

 

[InkHeart]

This is all extremely sad. Terrible for someone's child who is addicted to crack and funding their addiction this way and sad for everyone if it does indeed turn out to be HE because I think everyone thought he was one of the good ones

What I don't understand is how, if you are in the public eye, you risk your entire career and reputation on this sort of stuff but they do, time and time and time again. Makes zero sense to me.

I'm not even kidding, I don't feel like I should even like any male celebs any more, because they always turn out to be sleazebags. Everyone from charming actors from my teenage days, to writers and artists I admire, to some guy on the news I thought was an upstanding pillar of society. I don't know if it's worth trusting a male celeb ever again.

 

[Merpedy]

He has liked these two tweets.

That's a genius statement to make tbf

 

[Por Que?]

If this latest update is true (and really it’s the closest thing to factual information we’ve got to go on at the moment) I really do feel for the young man.

We don’t know the nature of his relationship with the accused but it may have felt meaningful in someway (even if just financially) and is now destroyed. Plus being potentially outed as gay/ addict/ sex worker when he may not have been ready for any of this. And all by a family member. I’d like to think the mum was doing what she thought best for her child but there’s no denying this is a complete clusterfuck.

 

[charchar56]

What I’m still trying to get my head around was, why the mum didn’t go the police instead of the paper .

Sun said two concerned parents, thought it was just the mother.

it’s so confusing my head hurts

 

[badwitch]

I’ve got to admit. After everything there’s still two aspects that doesn’t fit.

1. ‘What have you done’.
2. ‘Tell your mum to call off the investigation’.

 

[Jusa]

A legal experts on Sky News said that it's very interesting that the word 'rubbish' has been used in the letter from the child's legal representative. He said that word has been chosen deliberately, meaning that the claims written in the Sun are not all false; he said if they had been false, a stronger word would have been used to categorically denied them.

Why can’t they just mess around with adults instead?? Even if there’s still a big age gap can they at least make it so the person is older than like 25 christ! Then they’d only have the cheating on the wife to answer to but at least that isn’t illegal! I swear they are so deluded they think they’ll never be caught

 

[Squittel]

This reminds me of that time Leslie Grantham got his knob out over webcam in his BBC dressing room even though it is nothing like that time, it’s just that that whole thing came into my head and I thought everyone else should experience my pain.
