Huw Edwards, one of the UK's most well-known broadcasters since joining the BBC in 1984, has ended his 40-year-long career in disgrace after pleading guilty to making indecent images of children.

Edwards, known for covering major national events such as the funeral of Queen Elizabeth II and the 2019 general election, was arrested in November following a police investigation that found he received 377 sexual images, including 41 indecent images of children, on WhatsApp.

His plea at Westminster Magistrates' Court marks the downfall of a trusted figure in British media, who had struggled with mental health issues.

Edwards' wife identified him as the BBC presenter at the center of earlier explicit image allegations in July 2023, prompting his resignation on medical advice.
