The sports presenter and the rugby union star have been together for 23 years and confessed they keep two duvets in the bedroom to keep each other happy 

Gabby recently said that she and Kenny are still adjusting to their twins Lois and Reuben, 19, moving out of their family home and the mother-of-two revealed she can now do things that she wouldn’t have done before. 

She told Bella Magazine: ‘Although it’s sad, it brings with it flexibility. You can do things that you wouldn’t have done before.’ 

Reminiscing on when she and Kenny first started dating, Gabby added: ‘It reminded me of when Kenny and I first started going out.

‘We used to live in Chiswick and I drove through there the other day and had a real flashback to our early life as a 20-something couple.’ 

The TV presenter also added that she would love to rent out their home and live in Central London for a few years. 

It comes after her husband Kenny opened up about his battle with prostate cancer – as well as the impact this had on their sex life.

After being given the all clear in 2023 following surgery to have his prostate removed, Kenny candidly discussed the after-effects of the treatment, saying it left him ‘black and blue downstairs’ and that his sex life was not ‘consistent’.

Thanks to his frank admissions, ‘so many people’ have told the former sportsman that they’ve now been screened for prostate cancer.

When asked how they have kept their marriage happy, Gabby admitted to The Mirror: ‘He (Kenny) would say two duvets!’

However, Kenny likely didn’t want the conversation surrounding his diagnosis – and his sex life – to continue as much as it has, with numerous headlines and follow-on discussions – and even his son, Reuben, 19, has pleaded with his parents to ‘stop talking about your sex life’.

Speaking to FEMAIL, Gabby revealed: ‘Kenny was keen to talk about it after he’d had his operation, because he felt very grateful because he indirectly discovered his prostate cancer from listening to an episode of [my] The Mid.Point podcast.’ 

‘And he said, “I had no knowledge about this, and I was so oblivious to this, the fact that it’s so much more common in men who are 50, this is the age, basically, to get yourselves tested.’

‘And so he wanted to talk about it on an episode of The Mid.Point. And so we agreed we’d do that afterwards, but we did some clips along the way. And he did say, “Look, I want to do this, but I don’t want to be like a poster boy for prostate cancer.”‘

Gabby explained how her husband felt after the podcast, she said: ‘he feels like it’s done, but of course, then conversations keep coming up afterwards, and as the kids would say, as Reuben said, “I think it’s great you’ve talked about Dad’s prostate cancer. Now stop talking about your sex life.”‘

She continued: ‘I guess my kids are used to the fact that we’ve kind of been in the public eye if you like, but they don’t really want us to go into the kind of machinations of our sex lives, which I respect, and, I totally agree with.’

Even Kenny’s mother commented on the topic, with the BBC host revealing: ‘His mum was like, “Oh, you’re in the paper today talking about your sex lives again”. And he was like, “well, it’s not really that, Mum. It was about prostate cancer.”

However, Gabby felt proud that her husband was discussing the issues and symptoms surrounding the cancer and its treatment of it.

She continued: ‘But also making each other laugh and having respect for each other’s goals and dreams and hopes and to never feel jealousy’ 

The star added that ‘talking about the realities of having prostate cancer and the risks of your functionality not being as good or going completely’ was ‘a big emotional thing to deal with’.

Gabby went on to say: ‘I think it is important to talk about because there are lots of other things that can happen to men in midlife that affect that and how it affects your relationship, and how it affects your feelings about yourself, all those things I think will be affecting a lot of men.’ 

‘And I think the more people can talk openly with their partners about things like that, the better it will be for them to be able to deal with it.’

Kenny’s prostate cancer was discovered after he’d gone to the doctor to check his testosterone levels.

Speaking to The Telegraph in 2023, Kenny said: ‘Whether it be my dyslexia, my relationship, IVF, we’ve always been quite open. So, I was quite happy to talk about erectile dysfunction and all these other things because I was like, “It is a symptom”.’

Kenny went on: ‘From a sexual point of view, it’s not consistent. As the surgeon said to me, this could take 18 months. Within a month, I was getting movement, where he says, “That’s amazing”. So it’s just not as consistent. The beauty is you can take a tablet and it changes things.’

Reiterating the need for all men his age to get checked, he said: ‘If I can help one person, that’d be great. But I’ve probably helped a lot of people with the coverage it had.’
