BiographyHuw Edwards ( hiw, hew, Welsh pronunciation: [hɨu]; born 18 August 1961) is a Welsh news presenter. He was the lead presenter of BBC News at Ten, the late evening news programme of BBC Television, from 2003 to 2023. He resigned from the BBC in 2024, during a police investigation into child pornography offences to which he pleaded guilty.

At the BBC, Edwards anchored coverage of state and international events, and occasionally presented on BBC News at Six, BBC News at One, BBC Weekend News, Daily Politics and the international news channel BBC World News. He presented coverage of major royal events, including the death and state funeral of Elizabeth II and the coronation of Charles III and Camilla.

In July 2023, Edwards was suspended by the BBC following allegations of sexual misconduct made in The Sun. The South Wales Police and the Metropolitan Police found no evidence of criminal conduct. Edwards was hospitalised with depression shortly afterwards, and resigned in April 2024. In July, he pleaded guilty to three counts of making indecent images of children by receiving them during online chats. On 16 September, he was given a six-month suspended jail sentence and placed on the sex offenders' register.
