Huw Edwards named as BBC presenter!

[Amuseaboosh]

I'm actually shocked.

Op I’m shocked too and I am on SM insta Facebook and tattle as well as here and he didn’t even cross my mind who it could be

Wherd is your evidence for this. The police have said there was no criminal activity.

if no crime has been committed then this is mainly an issue between mrs edwards and himself

You don't have to have committed a crime to lose your job for inappropriate behaviour, bringing the organisation into disrepute etc etc.

He was 18 when the pictures were sent, he was on Only Fans specifically for this reason. This was not someone groomed as a child then tricked into sending pictures. He used a popular platform to make a very lucrative wage of what he was selling.

No evidence at all he’s a drug addict - in fact the contrary as he’s come out himself and said it’s absolute nonsense and the Huw did nothing illegal. I believe him - the mother and stepdad sound like money grabbing twats who are obviously eat at bed form their son for a reason.

What situation was this 17 year old in to make them “vulnerable” or are you saying all 17 year old vulnerable ?

You are clueless when it comes to what has actually happened. Where do you get your facts the unsubstantiated statement of estranged parents, which has been denied by the young person in the middle of all this

I didn't say I had proof. Who here has ANY proof. It's what's been reported, and people will make their own judgment based on what they are reading/seeing.

1000's and 1000's of opinions are shared online and in real life that absolutely are bot based on 'proof'.

What an odd statement to make.

What do you mean? The police aren't inveatigating a crime?

Soooo many abuse apologists on this thread.

But the police have said no crime has been committed so no 17 year old sending explicit images?

No a drug addict.

Not exploited - he bought a service. Yes it’s totally gross the service is available to buy but it is mutually beneficial, not one person a victim and one a perpetrator

Isn’t posting photos on OF sleazy no matter how old you are?

I think people need to be careful what they are saying. The police are saying no crime so it can't have been a 17 year old. If you can't prove it was a 17 year old it is defamation isn't it? Well that's what the legal people on TV have been saying.

Im sure people wont be happy till he kills himself.

What site did he go to? I heard it was Snapchat and I thought that was for adults?

@motherofcontracts the police have said no crime has been committed. So that either means the person wasn't 17 or no evidence of photos exchanged because as you say, if both these things were true it would be illegal.

Obviously if the person is 18 they can be vulnerable but we don't know for certain they were 17

You seem pretty certain around what happened, going by your previous posts … or maybe you just believe what’s in The Sun .. a newspaper with a full history of lying, sensationalism and ruining loved

He's certainly taken the heat off PS.

Has the only fans aspect been confirmed now? Is that in addition to the dating apps?

Same ... I would be careful with the allegations.

We have the legal statement of the person in question and the police statement both saying no criminal activity. So what we are talking is sleazy, not illegal.

Yes. This. There may not be enough evidence that it started when the lad was 17 but no one is questioning that the payments were made. He funded a lads drug habit. He has repeatedly pursued young men behind his family's backs. He's a creepy predator.

What abuse are you talking about ?

Too many people believe what The Sun prints

TBH I’m not sure if anything has been confirmed. Except that the original claim by a supposedly distressed mother was a load of rubbish.

But what we do know is no crime has been committed. With everything else being pure speculation, calling him an abuser, being happy he’s hospitalised and basically calling for his head are absolutely ridiculous reactions.

Oh so it was! I remember now, thanks.

I was just going off to work that morning

Having red and listened to various outlets I agree with the comments about it being the mum driving this and The Sun happily reporting (what May now be slanderous?) stories.

The lad is 20. He has spoken on the phone recently and his mum has gone to the press about it. He has been reported saying nothing untoward happened.

Maybe the mum needs to stop blaming others and look at why her teenage son was dealing drugs and funding it through only fans.

Doesn't make it quite shocking why HE has done but shocking, unexpected and criminal aren't all the same thing.
