Culture committee chair says she feels ‘sorry’ for Huw Edwards and his family
The chairwoman of the Culture, Media and Sport Committee has said she feels “very sorry” for Huw Edwards and his family after the BBC newsreader resigned from the corporation earlier this week.
His resignation “on the basis of medical advice from his doctors” follows allegations that he paid a young person for sexually explicit photos.
Edwards was suspended by the corporation after the allegations came to light, but the Metropolitan Police later said that no criminal offence had taken place.
