Jermaine Jenas breaks silence ahead of punditry return after BBC sack and sexting shame Jermaine Jenas has insisted he is now a 'better person' after returning to talkSPORT for the first time since he was sacked by the BBC.
Jenas was removed from his role as a presenter of The One Show and a pundit for BBC Sport in August 2023 following allegations of inappropriate behaviour.
"Once you accept those things, then you can work on yourself and you can work on the other things and you can work on your family and work towards a brighter future.
After routine enquiries, Jenas' contract was terminated, with the BBC's new Director of Sport Alex Kay-Jelski understood to have been heavily involved in this whole process.
Jenas told the station: "The biggest thing in this whole situation is about taking responsibility and that has been at the forefront of my mind… There's a reason why you're in this position and there's a reason why this has happened.
