The front pages of UK newspapers are dominated by the revelation that Huw Edwards, one of Britain’s most familiar and well regarded newsreaders, is according to a statement from his wife the BBC presenter at the centre of a scandal that began over allegations in the Sun newspaper about explicit photos.
The Guardian, citing Vicky Flind, reports that Edwards is in hospital to treat “mental health issues” for the “foreseeable future” and quotes her as saying that “once well enough, he intends to respond to the stories published”. The front page adds that police say no evidence of criminality was found “amid questions over the Sun’s reporting.”
