Mid life crisis sounds about right for Jenas but seems more of a private matter than anything. If he keeps his head down for a while I think he could rebuild his career

Agree but it was a bit different back then. Now, he'd have gone for that IMO

How does the therapy work .... don't take pictures of your knob and send them to young women, isn't a long therapy session

I don't know about that.

I'd say that Jenas is still above the standards of the BBC.

Difference there was that Rhian didn't complain about it as far as I'm aware, so it will count as her consenting to the pictures.

Where as Jenas doesn't have that defense.

I thought I'd never seen him before - certainly don't know the name.

BUT, I do remember seeing him on TV at a friend's house. The friend had on the One Show. I do remember now, and my immediate thought was this presenter Jenas isn't a professional broadcaster. I could see that. Too amateurish. My first thought he must be a boy band member giving this presenter job. Turns out he's an ex footballer.

He's obviously been promoted way beyond his capabilities. The guy is a clown. He's probably too arrogant to realise he was given a golden opportunity and he blew it. Just like Edwards.

Sounds like he was sexting / making unwanted advances......as a married man , Edwards was a full blown predator & had images of child porn so not really the same.

Obviously if Jermaine was harassing and being inappropriate ( which sounds like he was) then obviously he has to be held accountable...and it explains why he was sacked.

…I’m only vaguely familiar with him but I really feel for his wife …it’s a difficult enough thing to discover but then to have to try to process it all with the full glare of media attention, awful for her and his family…

yes with Rhian it was mutual, sounds like Jenas thought he was Gods gift

I think that is a cliche, sure like any stars in the public eye there are a few that cheat, but most dont, plenty footballers have strong relationships and just go home to their wives and kids , you only hear about the ones that step out of line

Jenas also says that it was two consenting adults so it's not really clear that it was the women who complained about him and he's implying it was mutual.

Maybe they complained when they realised he was messaging two of them or it was a third party who intervened

Oh I thought the use of 'unsolicited' is that he sent them uninvited, yes if it were two and they found out that could be why it was reported

Craig David gone wrong.

I thought the same tbh.

Because I just associate the word "unsolicited" with the victim of a situation not consenting to whatever misdeed has befallen them in that moment.

[MTVN]

Is it being reported as unsolicited? I thought it was just being called 'inappropriate'

[bots]

between two consenting adults is a very generic statement and isn't necessarily a factual representation of the recipients view point. Someone consenting to receiving a text message doesn't necessarily expect something more explicit

[UserSince2005]

Wonder if it was the typical ass shots he likes to send, asking for it to be licked, that grossed the girl out enough to report him.
Straight girls can be so boring sometimes

Unless Rhian says otherwise, that's how that case with Vernon and herself will be viewed in legal terms I would guess.

…it feels a bit conflicting to say that the texts were all consenting …but he wanted to apologise because they’re inappropriate…anyway, I just feel so sad for his wife/his family who have to go through all of this so publicly…


…I really don’t understand the BBC …they’ve sacked this person immediately and yet with Huw Edwards…they gave him every benefit of every side of every doubt even when there were nine there to give…

one of the biggest criticisms of the BBC previously was that they didn't act sooner for Huw
