Of the 377 sexual images sent between Huw Edwards and an unnamed man, 41 were indecent images of children
This court artist sketch by Elizabeth Cook of Chief Magistrate Paul Goldspring, right, with former BBC broadcaster Huw Edwards appearing at Westminster Magistrates' Court in London on July 31.Huw Edwards , the BBC ’s former top news presenter, pleaded guilty Wednesday to three counts of making indecent images of children as he admitted accessing photographs sent to him by a man via the WhatsApp messaging service.
The final indecent image was sent in August 2021, a “category A” film featuring a young boy. The man told Edwards the child was “quite young looking” and that he had more images which were illegal. Edwards then told him not to send any illegal images and no more such indecent images were sent, though the pair continued to exchange legal pornographic images until April 2022.
Edwards, who was one of the BBC’s top earners, was suspended in July 2023 for separate claims made last year. He later resigned for health reasons. He had not been seen in public until Wednesday’s hearing.
