Fresh allegations have surfaced against a BBC presenter facing allegations over payments for sexually explicit photos.

The Sun now claims the broadcast star sent ‘creepy’ texts to a person when they were 17-years-old.

According to the unnamed alleged person, the first message – over Instagram – consisted of a love heart emoji.

Later messages consisted of messages about the-then 17-year-old watching Netflix, planning work experience and discussing the star’s job.

The broadcaster also allegedly sent kisses, the Sun newspaper claims.

Once the 17-year-old in the messages revealed they were at school, the seemingly flirtatious messages stopped from the other account.

The youth told The Sun that ‘looking back now it does seem creepy because he was messaging me when I was still at school’.

It is unclear as to the 17-year-old is a person quoted in a previous article by the Sun – or a new alleged victim.

The news comes after claims the BBC presenter broke lockdown rules to meet a 23-year-old.

Messages seen by the Sun newspaper suggest the top star travelled across London, to a different county, to see them in February 2021.

It is alleged the two met on a dating website and the presenter pressed them for more almost two months to see each other in person, despite England being in a strict three-tier system. 

The young person said: ‘I kept fobbing him off but he became so persistent. He then started getting really demanding when I made excuses not to meet him.’

Metro has contacted the BBC for comment but is unable to verify the claims made in the Sun’s article.
