An unnamed male BBC presenter has been suspended over allegations he paid a teenager $45,000 for sexually explicit photos
It is understood the BBC has been in touch with police over the claims
BBC director general Tim Davie has confirmed the corporation first became aware of the allegations in May, adding that he is taking the situation "extremely seriously"
He also says new claims of "a different nature" were revealed on Thursday and the BBC is in contact with the family
In an email to BBC staff, Davie also condemned social media speculation about which presenter is involved Some BBC presenters took to social media to deny they were the star in question, including Rylan Clark, Jeremy Vine, Nicky Campbell and Gary Lineker
Culture Secretary Lucy Frazer spoke to Davie on Sunday about the "deeply concerning" claims and called for the BBC to be given "space" to investigate
Fresh allegations, published by the Sun, say the star was pictured in his underwear "ready for my child to perform for him"
Conservative minister Victoria Atkins has urged people to consider the young person at the heart of the matter, who will likely be "feeling all sorts of emotions" in the wake of the story

Very timely story, with this week’s release of Sound of Freedom.
And Phillip Schofield just got the sack from ITV.
Britain has been ground zero for homos and perverts for 150 years.

You can find photos like that for free on the Internet any time you want. Nobody would pay that much for photos. There was obviously an expectation of a lot more than just photos.
You know with the name BBC...something bad is going to happen.
Apparently, ITV isn’t immune neither....

Johnny Rotten (of the Sex Pistols) was calling out Saville for his behaviour all the way back in the Seventies, but no one took him seriously...
But the BBC News division is,I suspect,crawling with Maoists and perverts...just as is MSLSD...See BS News,etc.
Finding depraved scumbags there shouldn't be a surprise.
