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
In a report published Tuesday, the broadcaster said an individual in their early 20s reached out to say they “felt threatened” by the unnamed presenter. The individual was first contacted anonymously by the male presenter on a dating app, according to the report. It’s not clear when the presenter allegedly reached out to the person. The person told BBC News that although they felt “under pressure” to meet up with the presenter, they never did.
BBC News said it was able to verify that the text messages were sent from a phone number belonging to the presenter. The outlet added it saw the person’s post online alluding to having contact with a BBC presenter they eventually intended to name. BBC News said it had contacted the presenter directly and via his lawyer but had not yet received a response to the latest allegations.
