Huw Edwards resigned from the BBC on Monday, having been off-air since last July

The mother of the young person at the centre of the Huw Edwards furore has said their family is "still suffering" and "still have so many questions" following the newsreader's resignation from the BBC . Mr Edwards left the BBC "on the basis of medical advice from his doctors" after 40 years of service, the corporation announced on Monday.

A statement from the BBC announcing Edwards' resignation said: "Huw Edwards has today resigned and left the BBC. After 40 years of service, Huw has explained that his decision was made on the basis of medical advice from his doctors. The mother told The Sun she needed to know from the BBC whether Mr Edwards had cooperated with their additional investigation into his conduct.

"The BBC's statement said it wants all parties to move on. We want that more than anything, but how can we? I don't think anyone appreciates the hell we've been through.She added: "We feared this would happen. We can't just have none of our questions answered. I just want my family to be reunited and for us all to get closure too."

The BBC confirmed Mr Edwards has not received a pay-off. He had long been a fixture in the corporation's coverage of major political and royal events.
