Moment BBC News reports Jermaine Jenas has been sacked for 'workplace conduct'. The presenter has been removed from presenting BBC's The One Show and its sports programmes following an investigation into complaints.
Jermaine Jenas was sacked by the BBC on Monday after two female colleagues complained of his workplace conduct and a series of raunchy texts.
The email that was sent to BBC staff by the broadcaster's Director of Sport informing them presenter Jermaine Jenas had been sacked'I think different departments were being told different things,' he said. 'I think it’s shocking.'The former Match of the Day presenter denied sending images or videos as part of the flirty messages.
The ex-footballer said he has a tendency to 'self-sabotage' his own relationship, saying that sexting other woman may not have been a physical form of cheating but he still considers it an unfaithful act. He said: 'I have let myself down, my family, friends and colleagues down, and I owe everyone an apology - especially the women with whom I was messaging. I am so, so sorry.'
'In that particular instance, there was an adult conversation that took place in a bar in London where that person made it very clear that they had an attraction to me. Yes there was alcohol involved but I take full responsibility. But his face dropped when he was asked about the Beeb itself, slamming their handling of the situation.
