In a shocking revelation, Alex, the ex-boyfriend of GB News presenter Dan Wootton, has come forward with serious allegations against the prominent journalist. Alex took to Twitter to share his experiences, shedding light on alleged instances of stalking, emotional bullying, and a disturbing incident that occurred during their relationship.
According to Alex’s detailed Twitter thread, his relationship with Wootton, which spanned from late 2009 to early 2013, was marked by profound distress and turmoil. He claimed that Wootton had surreptitiously gained access to his social media accounts and email without his knowledge, leading Alex to suspect he was being stalked. The intrusion became evident when Alex discovered that his Gmail account had been regularly accessed from the News of the World office, where Wootton was employed at the time.
During a period when Wootton was visiting his family in New Zealand, Alex stayed at Wootton’s flat to care for their cat. It was during this time that Alex stumbled upon a locked bag hidden behind the washing machine. Alex claims that he managed to open it and found an external hard drive inside.
To his shock, Alex alleges that he discovered a video on the hard drive showing one of Wootton’s acquaintances, a Sun employee, engaged in sexual activity with their partner. The video appeared to have been filmed without their knowledge, utilizing a hidden camera, according to Alex’s account. Alongside the video, Alex claims he found a transcript of an MSN conversation between the Sun employee’s partner and an individual identified as ‘Martin Branning.’ The transcript indicated that, unbeknownst to the Sun employee, an arrangement had been made to secretly create the sex tape in exchange for £500. Based on his observations, Alex deduced that ‘Martin Branning’ was an alias used by Wootton.
In February 2020, following the tragic death of Caroline Flack, Alex decided to share his discoveries on Twitter using his old account. However, he alleges that a mutual friend contacted him on behalf of Wootton, exerting significant pressure on him to remove the tweets. Feeling intimidated by the potential consequences, Alex reluctantly took down the tweets but shared them initially in hopes that someone might recognize the name ‘Branning.’ Subsequently, Alex received a message from a former colleague of Wootton’s, who claimed to have been harassed by ‘Martin Branning.’ The message suggested that other colleagues from the Sun had also encountered similar situations.
Alex reported the incident to the Metropolitan Police, although no further action was taken. Meanwhile, Dan Wootton has been absent from Twitter and has not appeared on his program on GB News this week. He has been temporarily replaced by another presenter. GB News did not respond to requests for comment.
It is important to note that these allegations are based solely on Alex’s account, and efforts are being made to verify the information. Dan Wootton has denied any wrongdoing. The gravity of the allegations raises significant concerns, and the public awaits further developments and potential responses from relevant authorities and organizations involved.
