Jeremy Vine says BBC presenter 'needs to come forward' before things 'get worse'

Jeremy Vine has urged the unnamed presenter at the heart of the BBC scandal 'to come forward', saying 'the longer he leaves it the worse it will be for him'.

Various high-profile figures have spoken out and have called for the BBC star to go public as many BBC employees including Gary Lineker, Nicky Campbell, Rylan Clark and Vine have all had to publicly deny on social media that they are the person in question.

Over the weekend, it was reported that a BBC presenter paid a teenager around £35,000 for sexually explicit photographs and the mother of the teenager had made a complaint to the BBC after their child used money to fund a drug addiction, and she also blames the presenter for "destroying her child's life".
