Gabby Logan has opened up about the new dynamic in her marriage to Kenny Logan, after their twins flew the nest. The couple, who married in 2001, are parents to 19-year-old son Reuben and daughter Lois, who are each pursuing separate paths. Louis is currently living where she studies at university, while Reuben plays for the rugby union team Northampton Saints. Reflecting on both of her children now being at a distance, Gabby, 51, admits noticing a change in her relationship with her children, as well as a side of Kenny she previously missed. Speaking on the We're Not Getting Any Younger podcast, she said: "We're now at that lovely stage where, I'm not saying they [the twins] are our mates, but in a sense that you have that kind of [friendly] relationship." The broadcaster went on to say following a recent chat with her daughter over the phone, she realised that Louis "really" understood her. "It is a lovely period of being a parent actually, in spite the fact that your house is a bit quiet," she added. On how it had been having just her and Kenny in the house, Gabby said she had noticed his "grumpy" side. "You really notice when your partner's off and not in a great mood, because before there was too much going on," she admitted. "He was not feeling great yesterday and he came back from somewhere and he was a bit grumpy, even though I had made a really nice dinner." She went on to say: "I thought, I wouldn't have noticed that before because I'd have been too busy dealing with kids issues, so you've got to be quite receptive and kind of not take it personally." Previously discussing how she and Kenny have stayed married for 24 years, Gabby said it was all about communication and making an effort. "Sometimes there’s going to be a player who needs picking up, and other times they’re the star of the game and it’s someone else who needs the boost," she told Good Housekeeping Magazine. "With a marriage, it’s the same: you’re never walking along the same bit of road at the same time." Gabby went on to say the pair "never stop working" at their relationship, adding marriage "isn’t something you can just leave to be and hope it’s all right in 15 years".
