Jermaine Jenas accused of sexual harassment against make-up artist

Jermaine Jenas, a former football player and BBC presenter, is facing serious allegations of sexual harassment from a junior make-up artist. The claims suggest that he persistently sought sexual relations with her, even after she indicated she was in a relationship. Jenas allegedly made inappropriate comments, including an offer that he would perform a sexual act that wouldn't be considered cheating. These incidents reportedly occurred several years before his rise to fame on The One Show. In August, Jenas was dismissed from the BBC for sending inappropriate messages to two female colleagues, which he later admitted caused him shame. Following his termination, he has faced similar accusations from other women, including one who reported receiving unwanted messages from him during the World Cup in Qatar two years ago. Jenas has publicly acknowledged his past mistakes and expressed regret for his actions. Despite the allegations, a spokesperson for Jenas has stated that he denies the claims of unsolicited messages and finds it troubling that these accusations have surfaced after such a long time. He has previously apologized for his behavior and is currently focusing on his family while undergoing therapy for personal issues. Jenas has expressed dissatisfaction with how the BBC handled his dismissal, describing the process as abrupt and poorly managed. He has also had to address the situation with his children during a family holiday, indicating the personal impact of these events on his life and relationships.
