In the wake of mounting sexual harassment allegations, YouTuber and radio DJ Dee Kosh has admitted to texting a 15-year-old boy with what he described as a “questionable tone” and apologised “to all the people who have suffered from this” in a statement on Monday night (Aug 17).

“To me, it was a friendly conversation which was cheeky and inappropriate, but I did not take it any further,” the 32-year-old said, referencing screenshots which showed him asking the boy to text him while “snuggled up in bed”.

“In hindsight, I see what was wrong and I take full responsibility for my actions, and I am sorry.”

Dee Kosh, whose real name is Darryl Ian Koshy, also confessed that “there is truth to some of the things which are being said now” despite a statement earlier on Saturday (Aug 15) where he said he was “denying all the allegations” made against him and would be “taking the necessary steps to clear this all up”.

He added that he was “sorry to the people [he has] hurt in the process”.

However, he emphasised that he had never had sexual relations with a minor and denied the allegations of him soliciting paid sex on dating platforms.
