An unnamed BBC presenter has been suspended after being accused of paying a teenager more than £35,000 for sexually explicit photos in bombshell reports.
The male BBC presenter - who is reportedly a "household name" - made a series of payments to the young person starting when they were 17 years old.
It comes after reports that the mother of the alleged victim claims that the money given to her teenager was used to fund a drug addiction of crack cocaine - which "destroyed her child's life."
