Scott Mills<\/a> has been sacked by the BBC, but before he left, his sizeable salary meant he could snap up a house worth over \u00a31 million. The country home is shared with Mills’ husband Sam Vaughn.<\/p>\n

Mills<\/a> was fired from his job as the host of the breakfast show on BBC Radio 2<\/a> over an allegation concerning “personal conduct”. This came just six days after he was first removed from the show and replaced by Gary Davies.<\/p>\n

His axing means he will no longer be able to cash in his BBC<\/a> salary, which had been rumoured to be one of the highest at Radio 2. Mills was thought to be earning between \u00a3355,000 and \u00a3359,000 annually.<\/p>\n

It’s since been revealed that the BBC\u2019s decision to sack Scott Mills relates to a 2016 police investigation into \u201cserious sexual offences\u201d against a teenage boy<\/a>. Mills was questioned by police under caution but the case was dropped because of a lack of evidence. However the Mirror<\/a> understands the sacking relates to this individual.<\/p>\n

Thanks to his huge salary, Mills was able to buy a home in Hertfordshire that was worth \u00a31,425,000 when it was bought. The home was bought in 2022 and, according to Zoopla, has five bedrooms. It also has a modern bathroom with a huge walk in shower, a combined kitchen and dining room as well as a separate sitting room and five bathrooms. The radio star moved there with his husband Sam Vaughn after living in London for years.<\/p>\n

Social media posts show Mills and Vaughn to be enjoying their home in a variety of ways, including moving around the kitchen in Heelys and spending time with their dog Teddy.<\/p>\n

Only a few months ago, Mills explained how Teddy had made their home better. He said: “From muddy walks to stolen space in the bed, he\u2019s filled our home with so much love, comfort and happiness. We honestly can\u2019t imagine life without him.”<\/p>\n
