Jason Manford Reflects on 2010 Sexting Scandal Ending The One Show Role

Comedian Jason Manford reflected on his 2010 departure from BBC's The One Show following a sexting scandal in which he sent explicit messages to female fans while married. He admitted to having 'f****d it' and took full responsibility for his actions, stating at the time he felt very low and stepped down to focus on his family and tour commitments. Manford reunited with former co-host Alex Jones on the show 15 years later, sharing a photo on Instagram and candidly acknowledging the premature end of their on-screen partnership. Despite the scandal, he mentioned his then-wife Catherine forgave him, though they eventually separated in 2013. Since then, Manford remarried and has six children in total. His candid reflections highlight personal growth and lessons learned from the incident.
