Ticketmaster maintained that its resale platforms, GetMeIn! and Seatwave, operated as "separate entities", in the words of then chairman Chris Edmonds at a 2016 House of Commons select committee hearing.

But both Mr Edmonds and Ms Emeny were directors of Ticketmaster UK Ltd and the holding company which owned Seatwave.

Mr Edmonds, Ticketmaster's chairman in 2016, had told Parliament that the company did not have "visibility" over how the sellers on its resale platforms acquired those tickets - but these accounts suggest Ticketmaster could have found out if they were buying them on their own website.

The Associated Press has issued an apology to legendary R&B singer-songwriter Kenneth “Babyface” Edmonds after its reporters faced internet ire for an awkward, Chappell Roan-induced red carpet moment before the 2025 Grammy Awards.
