Edwards’ wife, Vicky Flind, said the newsreader is ‘suffering from serious mental health issues’ and is now ‘receiving inpatient hospital care’

The Metropolitan Police has said no criminal offence had been committed by Edwards and no further police action will be taken 'at this time'.

Paddy McGuinness has given a humorous response to claims he could be the unnamed BBC presenter who reportedly sent £35,000 to a teenager for explicit pictures.

A second person has come forward with allegations against a presenter who was recently suspended by the BBC following accusations of sexual misconduct, according to BBC News.

The new revelation came after the BBC sought to defend its handling of the growing scandal, after acknowledging that it did not flag the first complaint to senior management for seven weeks until a tabloid newspaper approached it about the story.

An unnamed BBC presenter was suspended over the weekend following allegations they sent money to a young person in exchange for explicit images.

Huw Edwards has not left the BBC despite it being announced on-air that he had resigned, after his wife named him as the star at the centre of the cash for sex images scandal.

The suspended BBC presenter at the centre of a photo scandal is yet to be named and Gethin Jones is the latest star to deny he is the host in question.

Former BBC star Jon Sopel has said the world of broadcasting has offered the presenter support.
