I have updated my post for more clarity...
I have been reading the PS threads for almost 48hrs. Finally registered in the early hours of yesterday morning so I could fully contribute and say thank you for all your info & this is a basic (getting more detailed) summary of what I have learned:
*PS is, and has been, gay for many years - but the issue that upsets everyone is the blatant attempts by him, his cohorts and the media backing him to manipulate the public into believing this is a recent personal "discovery" or "revelation", despite its being known in the "business" - both television and journalism - for years that he's gay. No one cares that he's gay. They care about being lied to and being manipulated by the media, particularly if this is any part of an attempt to cover up any other potentially more damaging (perhaps even illegal as well as immoral) stories...
* Another concern is that this "revelation" may or may not be in connection with the rumours of PS being intimate with a much younger (teenage) person, MM, who he may have met at a theatre group he is patron of when he was aged @ 10/11yrs. He also friended MM on social media when he was 15 and then "mentored" him through "menial" runner work at TM for a number of years after MM had crowdfunded £500 for a move to London as a very young teenage adult. MM then moved on from TM to LW in the summer of 2019, and was apparently sacked by ITV last week, just before the big"reveal", and his Twitter and media accounts, alongside the web page of theatre he attended as a youngster, have disappeared. Not concerning or worrying at all?!?!
*SS (no relation to PS, surname coincidentally the same) ran the 2 Faced theatre that MM attended. SS was a child performer, with PS and has remained friends with him. PS became a patron of the theatre and regularly attended and supported them. The theatre's web page has currently been closed down.
*PS has been snapchatting teenagers/young men for some years, illustrating a pattern a behaviour with a prevalence towards young looking guys. His language and behaviour shows a distinct concern in consideration towards his a middle to elderly aged man is addressing young boys. Grooming language or behaviour?!?!
*Yes, MM was a precocious, irritating teenage oik who wanted to make his way in the "wonderful" world of showbiz - but that in no way excuses older, richer and more influential men like PS from taking advantage of much, much younger adoring, desperate and vulnerable children/young people and using them for their own personal sexual gratification, and then possibly casting them aside once they lose their innocent looks and charming boyishness. That's called grooming and exploitation whichever way you look at it!
*Rumours are rife that both PS and HW partake in the use of "Columbian Marching Powder" which may account for some of their manic "under the influence" behaviour at times (as well as possibly their weight control and unpleasant manner towards other people in more menial/less public positions), and not only the effects of over indulgence from after the television award ceremonies. Obviously, other "stars" use and misuse non prescription drugs as well. What rankles is the presentation and profit they make from their reputation that these people are clean living, and that they get to be "outraged and indignant" on other poor people appearing on their programmes that struggle with their issues without the benefit of the "smokescreen" of hypocrisy and big finance that these people have.
*Almost all the presenters at ITV are represented and aggressively promoted by the same company JG, which coincidentally employs many of the adult children of said "stars", and which explains why we see them on so many programmes and in so many adverts ad nauseum. This is like a "mafia" that runs a protection around them to prevent "unpleasant" and negative stories appearing in the press whilst promoting positive and, as we have seen with the the big "reveal", basically fictional stories. This organisation seems not only to run their lives/relationships but also the public's, because it controls the information we get access to and thereby decisions we may make. There is obviously big money in this. Just how much and how far are they willing to go - or have gone - to protect their sources of income?
. I don’t think the police would touch this with a barge pole
