It was Huw

According to his wife...

Fuck’s sake, people. This is a man’s life and reputation ruined for no real reason. If nothing illegal happened, it’s between him and his wife. It’s not as if the “young person” has complained.
The only winners in all this are Murdoch and the Tories.

Read the media reporting of any court case and it's a standard defence.

'Yes I know I tried to kill my wife but I was having a MH crisis.'

'Yes I know I beat up that woman who didn't want to go out with me but I was under stress at work.'

'Yes I know I got drunk and drove too fast and killed someone but I was suffering with my mental health.'

I'd have had a tiny bit of respect for him if he had made the statement himself. But the cowardly dirty old man hides behind his wife. More fool her.

He wasn’t fine. He has a long history of depression. Have some compassion.

No not at all

He's had mental health problems for years. Nasty remark

Why would he lose his job? Because he cheated on his wife?

If that was the case half the country would be out of work.

Or is it because he's a high profile figure who is now out of the closet?

That would be veering into homophobia territory.

This is a non story, made a story by the slime that is that rag of a "news"paper.

So is that Mr Tumble definitely ruled out?

Lol at all the threads in active. Everyone desperate to be the one to start the thread.

For no real reason? He is in his late 50s and has allegedly being messaging teenagers and those in their 20s. Plenty of 'reason'.

Here's a copy of what I just read on another forum.

Honestly I am relieved. I thought the man might take his own life, and that would not have sat right with me, regardless of the 'facts' which we don't yet know (and have no real right to know).

The whole thing has been absolutely repulsive. The police have said there has been no crime committed as far as they are concerned. The Sun has successfully buried the far more important stories to do with bloody Boris Johnson and his phone and the Covid inquiry.

There is an "unnamed" sitting MP who has been accused of rape and who is still a sitting MP. There are numerous others who have sexual assault claims against them. Can we get some perspective? This is just a man whose unwise, but not illegal, private life choices have been smeared all over the front of the papers. He's been an idiot but I really feel for him.

Completely agree @DeeCee77

He's had years or documented mental health problems. This seems the logical consequence of the S*ns article.

Can we please stop calling psychiatric units and hospitals “mental hospitals” please. It’s an absolute kick in the teeth for anyone that’s suffered a mental health breakdown and needed to be admitted for care.

Man fucks up. Woman picks up the pieces. Man hides behind his “mental elf”.

Has anyone else wondered what the statistical chances are of so many high profile male presenters being secretly gay/bi AND attracted to underage minors?!! It's so bizarre...is it just a fluke or does it reveal that there are a significant proportion of men who have those propensities? Only those in powerful positions may end up with the possibility to live out their secret lives. Also makes you wonder how many more men out there could do the same things simply given the money and status.

Interesting how many on here have already decided he's guilty. Time will indeed tell, but frankly, the Scum newspaper is a pile of shite. The police have found no crime to prosecute him for.

@StrictlyCandelabra

He has not been sectioned.. anyone can admit themselves into the priory if finances allowed.

Except he doesn't.....

Absolutely agree with this comment

How do you know which hospital or clinic he is checked into, and why.

I thought he had documented MH issues over a number of years, not just now.

When most people cheat on their spouses it isn't a national news story. For years, if not the rest of his career, he'll be known as the man who paid a teenager for explicit photos.

How does being depressed make it acceptable to ask teenagers for sex pics when you’re in your 60s? Why is “mental health” now a catch-all excuse for everything?
