Reports say that the 58-year old broadcaster's relationship with the other man involved drugs, particularly mephedrone. Speculations regarding this matter rose, when a video of Paul Ross wherein he was snorting said drug from another man's hand surfaced online.
Paul Ross is also said to have stated that he participated in outdoor homosexual intercourse sessions.
According to media reports, the presenter is said to have met his gay lover, who is a then English teacher, at a dogging spot where they've ended up having intercourse in the bushes. After said incident, they've been in a relationship and have been meeting each other on a regular basis at Paul Ross' lover's place.
According to a BBC representative, Paul Ross has already stated his personal issues and the company will be giving him a time off to deal with them. His work is currently suspended and he wouldn't go on air for the shows he is supposed to appear in.
Sources also say that the network is not expecting to see Paul Ross at work for the rest of September, subsequent to the issues that surround the broadcaster.
Paul Ross himself described himself as an addict in an interview and has reportedly subjected himself under counseling for his drug addiction.
Despite Paul Ross' shortcomings, his wife is said to be supportive of him, saying that she does not have any intention of throwing away their 14-year relationship for just those reasons.
Paul Ross is supposed to co-host London's radio breakfast show under BBC, but it will air without him tomorrow.
