Tim Westwood has stepped down from his Capital Xtra radio show following sexual misconduct allegations that were raised in a joint investigation done by the BBC and The Guardian.

The investigation and the accompanying documentary Tim Westwood: Abuse of Power collectively presented allegations from seven women who accused Westwood of sexual misconduct and predatory behaviour.

In a statement, Global, the company that owns Capital Xtra, said, “Following the claims that have recently come to light, Tim Westwood has stepped down from his show until further notice.”

In response to the allegations, a representative for Westwood said, “Tim Westwood strongly denies all allegations of inappropriate behaviour. In a career that has spanned 40 years, there have never been any complaints made against him officially or unofficially. Tim Westwood strongly rejects all allegations of wrongdoing.”
