- During a November 19 appearance on Good Morning Britain, Wynne Evans said he attempted to take his own life and was rushed to hospital.

- Reading out a BBC statement, Susanna announced the BBC provided a comprehensive duty of care, including wellbeing professionals and a designated contact, while Reach PLC and other publishers have sought comment.
