The alleged recipient’s mother said they had used the cash to fund a crack habit.
She added of the star: “When I see him on telly, I feel sick.
“I blame this BBC man for destroying my child’s life.
“Taking my child’s innocence and handing over the money for crack cocaine that could kill my child.”
The family complained to the BBC about his behaviour on May 19 and begged them to make the man “stop sending the cash”.
They had discovered that their child has been using the money to fund their spiralling addiction to crack cocaine.
The furious mother told last night how her child had gone from “a happy-go-lucky youngster to a ghost-like crack addict” in just three years.
She told how her child, now 20, had shown her an online bank statement that had numerous deposits from the star.
Holding back tears, she added: “There were huge sums, hundreds, or thousands of pounds at a time.
“One time he had sent £5,000 in one lump. The money had been in exchange for sexually explicit photographs of my child.”
