BBC Presenter scandal #9

[gossipgirlxxo]

I don’t think she’s named him out of spite, I think she’s just done it on his behalf as he’s in hospital with serious mental health issues

 

[savedlatin21]

I know he has had mental health issues, and I feel for anyone who has had depression and suicidal thoughts. But he can’t mask behaving inappropriately and intimidating much younger men (some younger than his own son) under the guise of MH issues either. Take some accountability

 

[RosieSparkle]

This is so desperately sad.

No evidence of a crime
No evidence any of these 20 somethings were underage at the time
Still no evidence of a so called crack addiction caused by Huw's money
A man in serious mental health crisis
A wife and 5 kids dealing with the fall out

I hope the Sun are proud of themselves

 

[Harrigan]

Just heard the latest news.

As a sufferer of depression for many years myself I just rolled my eyes. It’s too easy to give any action to a mental health problem. It’s a cop out.

This has been used countless times by celebrities when I’m sure it doesn’t apply to ordinary folk who do not have the funds to be admitted to the priory.

Taking responsibility for your actions is a necessary evil to growing up.

 

[CELESTE CROCKETT]

Bloody pathetic
Books himself into mental health care to escape the flak
Sorry but depression doesn't make one want nude photos from young men. I know it can exacerbate risky behaviours he didnt suddenly develop a penchant for young men!
His poor wife and 5 kids If shes got any sense she'll divorce him

 

[Jaynefnw]

I'm sorry but can we please get a audiobook type version of tattle, so we all can get shit done, pets and kids can then be fed, we can wash/shower, anymore of this and my household will be eating off paper plates and using fingers. Between this thread and the Katie price one, it's like I have another full time job, my 24 yr old son is involved now too, we both were searching the internet for the now famous butt pic on a Sunday evening ....we both looked at other and said can you believe our days off work have resulted in us searching for the bare arse of a 60 yr old man .......so I'm definitely up for audiobook tattle, for all our sakes

 

[Tatvam]

Hear me out, I actually don't think HE has done enough wrong here to deserve this. Morally maybe. It's sordid and a bit gross but what crime is it?? Think its entirely different to the PS situation

 

[friedeggontoast]

Unless there’s cold hard proof he has done anything illegal, at the worst he’s cheated on his wife.

Heck, we don’t even know the facts about that anyway. They could be in an open relationship for all we know.

This witch hunt makes me so uncomfortable

 

[LisaRimmer]

HIS WIFE HAS NAMED HIM SHFHAJDBRVAJSBDBE

 

[stardust21]

Fucking hell. He’s receiving in paitent care.

fuck the sun.

Also.

Fuck Jeremy Vine.

He’s not coming forward because he’s angry is he Jeremy? You utter cretin.

 

[friedeggontoast]

We still have no proof he has done anything wrong and yet he’s the subject of a national witch hunt.

To be a mental health inpatient in hospital is serious, I hope he is ok. His poor family.

being gay and not out isn’t illegal. Paying for sexual images of consensual of age adults is not illegal. Yet people on here , Twitter etc have said he’s the next jimmy Saville, feel sick that he’s ever visited or been around children etc

Fair enough if having a picture of your arse leaked, being called a nonce and being falsely accused of paying for underage porn wouldn’t affect your mental health but clearly it has his .

He’s still going to be investigated by the bbc so I don’t think he’s just pretending to have depression to get out of it

 

[stardust21]

That statement sounds like he has tried to kill himself.

Seriously. FUCK THE SUN.

 

[friedeggontoast]

Christ I wouldn’t want to see some of you on a jury, you’ve seen no evidence he has done anything wrong and yet you’re all ready to lock him up.

 

[LuceLet]

He’s in a mental hospital receiving care yet he was liking tweets yesterday and the day before…

 

[Force12]

metal health is the new bad back I swear

 

[Squittel]

It’s not a case of feeling sorry for him.
To be at a point where you receive inpatient care isn’t something you can fake. It’s a serious situation.

I swear to God, people already taking the piss out of a man in hospital who is potentially suicidal. It’s gross.

 

[YellowMellow14]

Surely no one thinks mental health is convenient excuse when he has previous with depressive episodes plus a massive fall from grace that's heading his way would cause most of the population mental health issues.

The Sun are SCUM!

 

[msmith2006]

my thoughts - I don't like the thought of anyone suffering from serious mental health issues , or that they would end up in hospital because of said issues. I also believe he has maybe been struggling with his closeted sexuality for years and that is also very sad indeed.

HOWEVER (Really resisted writing Huwever btw) - at the end of the day, he played with fire and he got burned. He has not committed any crimes which is good but when you present the news every single night , report on the Queen's death, the King's coronation etc etc all while earning nearly half a mill a year - you can't expect to run the risk of playing away and not being found out eventually.

I feel very very sorry for his wife and children. Now that the statement is out, I'm going to go to the cinema with husband so he doesn't divorce me. X

 

[InTheDollsHouse]

In hospital let's all feel sorry for him.that there narrative.

It’s not a case of feeling sorry for him.
