A mural of Huw Edwards in his home village has been removed.
The artwork in Llangennech, Carmarthenshire, had been unveiled last year as part of a wider mural by artist Steve “Jenks” Jenkins.
But it has now been painted over by the artist after Edwards pleaded guilty to three counts of making indecent images of children on Wednesday.
The court heard Edwards – who was one of the BBC’s highest-paid stars – received 41 indecent images of children from a convicted paedophile.
Police later confirmed Edwards was arrested after WhatsApp messages were found in an “entirely unrelated investigation”.
On Thursday, BBC boss Tim Davie faced an urgent meeting with Culture Secretary Lisa Nandy over the handling of the case.
She has since said the 62-year-old BBC veteran news presenter should return his salary.
Edwards was paid £200,000 after he was arrested in November while he was suspended by the broadcaster up until he resigned in April on medical advice.

Since his conviction, a plaque in Cardiff Castle commemorating the opening of its interpretation centre has also been taken down. The centre was opened by Edwards in 2008.
In a brief statement, a Cardiff Council spokesperson told Sky News: “The plaque on the Cardiff Castle Interpretation Centre has been removed.”
It comes as a number of institutions have said they are reviewing honours previously given to the former broadcaster.
In 2007, he was made an honorary journalism professor at Cardiff University.
“In light of the guilty pleas offered by Huw Edwards, Cardiff University is actively reviewing procedures in relation to the honorary fellowship award and his position as an honorary professor,” a spokesperson said.
“We have no further comment on the matter.”

Edwards was also given an honorary fellowship by Bangor University in 2014.
“In light of reported events the university will be reviewing the honorary fellowship awarded to Huw Edwards,” a university spokesperson said.
Edwards will be sentenced on 16 September.
