Vindication for family
THE BBC’s apology vindicates the parents who complained about Huw Edwards. And it vindicates The Sun too.
This was a desperate couple who approached us with firm evidence that the star was paying large sums to a vulnerable young person and receiving explicit pictures.

All they wanted was for Edwards’ payments to stop — but they had drawn a blank with the BBC, which failed to act on their detailed complaint.
The corporation has rightly apologised for the abject failure of that process. Credit to boss Tim Davie for that.
This is a day for contrition from the BBC.
And confirmation that our original story was firmly in the public interest.
