When the charges were put to him, he pleaded guilty to sexually exploiting three children at an address in Ireland between May 26th and July 10th 2017.

He also admitted sexually assaulting two children in the Philippines three years beforehand and sexually exploiting another child through a Skype chat.

The 58-year-old also pleaded guilty to having child pornography at an unknown location in England on November 18th 2017 and at an address in Ireland two days later.

Creaven, who used to work as a sports producer for RTÉ, is currently being assessed by a psychologist ahead of his sentence hearing in July.
