Former BBC news presenter Huw Edwards has reportedly placed his London home on the market ahead of the release of a factual drama outlining his "grooming" of a 17-year-old on Channel 5.
The 64-year-old's Dulwich six-bedroom house, which he shared with his ex-wife Vicky Flind, has been on the market since 2024, when it was listed at £4.75 million. The star bought the property in 2006 for £1.85 million.
It has since been reported that the house is still on the market and has recently had a price reduction of £900,000, selling for £3,850,000 instead.
Huw shared the home with his former wife and his five children before he resigned from the BBC, following which he pleaded guilty to three counts of making indecent images of children.
The six-bedroom, three-bathroom, three-storey detached house is over 4,200 square feet inside and is on "one of London's most desirable roads". It has a gated, secure driveway with parking for several cars and a double-length garage.

The news anchor is the subject of a new Channel 5 drama, Power: The Downfall of Huw Edwards, starring Martin Clunes. It follows the story of "how a vulnerable 17-year-old was groomed by one of the most powerful figures in television," according to the synopsis.
Reacting to the dramatisation of his life, Huw stated in an interview that Wonderhood Studios made "no attempt" to check the truth of the narrative before the show was created.
He told the Daily Mail: "[They] made no attempt to check with me the truth of any aspect of their narrative before going ahead with the production.
"They belatedly asked for a response after the drama had been made, while reserving the right to edit any such response. Channel 5's 'factual drama' is hardly likely to convey the reality of what happened."
The presenter revealed he was in the process of making his own version of events but had been slowed down due to his poor mental health and the toll that was taking on his everyday life.

At the height of his career, Huw was one of the most well-respected and trusted newsreaders, chosen by the BBC to break the news of Queen Elizabeth II's death in 2022.
A year later, in 2023, Huw's wife named him as the "top BBC star" who The Sun claimed had paid a teenager for sexual images. Following a Met Police investigation in 2024, he was charged.
Huw pleaded guilty to making indecent images of children and admitted to having 41 photographs on WhatsApp, including seven of the most serious type. He was given a six-month suspended sentence.
