Gabby Logan has claimed that the key to a healthy long-term relationship is being able to make each other laugh and maintaining the confidence to support one another's life goals.
The 51-year-old also suggested attention must be paid to the bedroom and quipped that her husband would suggest getting “two duvets!”
Logan’s job as a sports reporter, covering the Champions League for Prime Video and the Olympics for the BBC, means she is often travelling away from her family.
Ultimately, she believes "making an effort” for each other is what has sustained her 23-year-long marriage.
Speaking from her sporting knowledge to The Independent, she said: "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."
Logan also reflected on the staying power of her marriage to the Sun, echoing: “Not to be crude, but if you had an amazing sports car, you couldn’t leave it in a garage for 15 years and expect it to work straight away. If you have something special, you need to look after it."

In recent months, Logan has been sharing her experiences and advice as she navigates a new phase in her life.
Logan says that she feels both sadness and a newfound sense of flexibility now that her and her husband Kenny’s twin children have left home.
Reminiscing about the earlier years of her relationship with her husband in London to Bella Magazine, Logan talked about the possibilities ahead for her.
“I'd love to rent out our house and live in central London for a few years. I never thought I'd do that but why not?"

She also explained her struggles with the menopause, with accompanying brain fog, and anxieties about her career.
"Fortunately, HRT (hormone replacement therapy) has been great, and I try to do regular exercise for my brain now, whether that's testing myself on remembering numbers or people's names," the Daily Mirror reported.
Along with this, Logan has adopted a sugar-free diet and Menopace supplements to help her vitamin levels and support her long-term health.
She also enthused: “I've discovered the joy of open water swimming. Embracing the cold has been amazing."
Logan has been speaking as part of Menopause Awareness Month where she hopes to “normalise conversations” around the subject.
The open discussion of health issues has previously touched Logan’s family after her husband’s prostate cancer scare in 2022. Following her suggestion to attend a Well Man health check, his cancer was discovered early.

On her podcast, The Mid-Point, Logan also talked with her husband about his troubles with dyslexia.
He spoke about how important it was that people struggling with dyslexia or the parents of dyslexic children are helped to find “ways of making it easier in trying to understand what it is".
The Logans tied the knot on July 19, 2001. The pair first met one another on a night in Fulham.
The pair share two teenage twins; son Reuben and daughter Lois, both 19.
