New BBC presenter claims as fourth person speaks of 'creepy' Instagram messages from star

A fourth person has made allegations that the BBC star at the centre of the sex picture scandal sent them ‘creepy’ messages on Instagram. The alleged message exchange took place when the young person was 17-years-old and is said to have been started by the unnamed presenter.

In the alleged messages, the BBC presenter appears to message the teen, who follows the top star, with a love heart emoji before the teen asks about his job role. The young person claimed the now-suspended BBC presenter messaged them when they were still in school, the Mirror reports.

In an interview with The Sun, they claimed: "Looking back now it does seem creepy because he was messaging me when I was still at school. In light of everything now, I feel shocked because as a broadcaster it is a name everyone would trust.
