Gabby Logan shared personal details about her intimate life during a podcast, and the content inadvertently became the background noise for her son’s workout sessions at the gym, where his teammates playfully teased him.
Reuben Logan, a Scotland Under-20s international player now signed with Sale Sharks, found himself training to the unexpected sound of his mother, the new host of Match of the Day, discussing her personal life with his father, Kenny.
Following in his father’s footsteps, a former Scotland and Wasps wing, Kenny faced a prostate cancer diagnosis in 2022. After successful treatment, which sometimes leads to erectile dysfunction, the couple openly discussed their experiences, sparking a positive conversation.
The public conversation around his parents’ intimacy was highlighted in the media and on Gabby’s podcast, “The Mid Point,” which his rugby teammates amusingly played on repeat during their gym sessions.
Recounting the incident, Reuben mentioned feeling embarrassed and asked his mom to consider the implications of her public discussions, especially given his environment in rugby. Despite the teasing from friends, Gabby didn’t see it as a big issue.
Kenny shared his recovery journey, mentioning the challenges but also the progress he was making in his sexual health. Reuben expressed his surprise at his father’s diagnosis but felt motivated to excel in rugby to make his dad proud.
Having recently moved from Northampton to Sale, Reuben aims to progress further in his rugby career after his debut in the Premiership for Northampton Saints.
