BBC presenter has been accused of sending cash to a vulnerable teenager in exchange for explicit pictures
Two BBC employees, one current and one former, have become the latest to come forward with allegations against BBC presenter Huw Edwards after his identity was revealed by his wife on Wednesday.
BBC Newsnight reported new claims from staff members who said they had received “inappropriate messages” from Edwards, “some late at night and signed off with kisses”.
Both said there was “a reluctance among junior staff to complain to managers about the conduct of high-profile colleagues in case it adversely affected their careers,” Newsnight said.
The allegations are the latest aimed at the BBC’s highest-paid journalist who is receiving in-patient hospital care for “serious mental health issues”.
