Adam Boulton apologised after criticism for calling Ann Widdecombe a spinster and speculating about her virginity during coverage of her murder investigation. Public figures including Nadhim Zahawi, Robert Jenrick and Sharron Davies condemned his remarks. Boulton said his comments were clumsy and made under the assumption he was offering an obituary-style reflection. Police confirmed Widdecombe’s death was not politically motivated or linked to terrorism.
