Then why didn't she go to the police?
“What did Hugh Edwards do to this woman that leaves her in the need of therapy ?”
I wondered that.

A few snippets:
"The complainant, a woman called Rachel who was in her 40s at the time, had never met Edwards but became friends with him after messaging him on Instagram in 2018."
"She retracted her complaints about the former newsreader but the BBC nevertheless warned Edwards about his online conduct and told him to cease contact."
"Their friendship is said to have continued until Edwards was taken off the air last year, even though a senior BBC manager met Edwards on February 23 2022, warning him to cease contact."
"Rachel first contacted the BBC three years ago to stop the relationship as she alleges it was becoming “toxic”, as he refused to meet her and would become angry."
The last paragraph is a bit telling. "He refused to meet her" gives me the impression that it was she who was doing the running.
Obviuosly a bit more to this than meets the eye.
