Jermaine Jenas' wife Ellie Penfold is believed to be 'standing by' the TV presenter, after he was sacked from the BBC following accusations of 'inappropriate behaviour'
Jermaine Jenas' wife Ellie Penfold is reportedly standing by the ex-footballer after he was sacked by the BBC following allegations of 'inappropriate behaviour'. Jermaine is best-known for hosting The One Show and Match of the Day, but it was revealed on 22 August that he'd lost his job at the BBC , after a complaint regarding text messages sent to a female staff member prompted the channel to launch an inquiry.
News broke on Thursday regarding Jermaine's BBC sacking. It has been reported that the reason behind Jermaine's dismissal relates to alleged inappropriate conduct concerning a female colleague. As per a BBC News article, the accusations involve digital communication, including text messages. The BBC has launched an internal investigation into Jermaine's alleged behaviour after concerns were reportedly raised "a few weeks ago". There are also rumours that he has split with his long-term agent, MC Saatchi, due to this crisis and is now seeking legal advice to clear his name. He was last seen co-hosting The One Show with Alex Jones on 22 July and provided analysis for Match of the Day on 4 May.
