Gabby Logan and Kirsty Gallacher show off their youthful looks as they pose during Greek holiday together

Daily Mail​20 hours ago
They have been friends for more than a quarter of a century, having first got to know each other in their mid 20s.
However, as these holiday snaps from their time relaxing in Greece this month show Gabby Logan and Kirsty Gallacher look as youthful as ever.
The pair have been friends for 25 years and have been pictured together numerous times - often at glitzy bashes and red carpet events.
In one photo, taken at the 2002 Elle Style Awards, Gallacher donned a sleeveless top with black trousers as she posed with Logan in a black top and leather skirt.
However, fast forward to a photo from their recent holiday in Greece and it's clear that the pair's healthy lifestyle has paid dividends.
The latest snap, which showed the pair posing in the sunshine in similar black dresses, was taken as they enjoyed a break with Logan's husband and children on the Greek island of Kefalonia.
One of the snaps from the holiday showed the Logan family, including Gabby and her Scots rugby legend husband Kenny, their jockey daughter Lois, 20, and her twin brother Reuben, 20, who plays rugby for Sale Sharks and the Scotland national team.
A video also captured the luxury property the group stayed at, which benefitted from a private pool and a view out over the Ionian Sea.
One friend even commented on Logan's seemingly timeless appearance next to the younger women in the group, writing: 'You look [like] the older sister.'
The family trip comes after Logan's daughter Lois made her debut as a jockey.
The 20-year-old rode at Goodwood in the Markel Magnolia Cup and although she did not place with Spirit of Ecstasy, she said she was itching for more.
'It was over so quickly and such a thrill,' she said. 'The horse was incredible and put up such a fight. We finished in midfield, which was not a bad result.
'I have got more of an edge for winning now and am not so scared of speed. It was really good fun.'
Her sports broadcaster and former gymnast mother, who co-hosts Match of the Day, said Lois had put her heart and soul into the training and confessed: 'It's harder to watch than rugby ... It is over so quick and like being a sprinter.'
But she said: 'All those 4.40am starts and the months of physical training have been worth it.'
The invitation-only Magnolia Cup sees riders from the world of business, sport, fashion and media take part to raise money for charity.
Lois, whose twin brother Reuben has followed in their ex-Scotland international father's footsteps to rugby, said they had both been encouraged by their parents to participate in sports - but had worked hard and 'never had anything handed' to them.
Lois, a student at Loughborough University, won two classes at the 2021 British Showjumping National Championships and qualified for the Horse of the Year Show.
But she told the Telegraph she had never even sat on a race horse before this year - with her mother warning that fitting in training with her studies was going to be a challenge.

Patrick Mahomes reveals his honest reaction to Travis Kelce-Taylor Swift romance in 2023

has admitted he was skeptical when Travis Kelce first told him he was dating Taylor Swift - only believing it once he saw the couple together in person. Mahomes and Kelce have played side-by-side for the Chiefs since 2017, developing one of the most successful duos in NFL history - and a strong friendship off the field. Speaking in ESPN's 'The Kingdom', the star quarterback recalled the moment Kelce confided in him about the relationship, days before Swift's first appearance at Arrowhead in September 2023. 'He told me during the week,' Mahomes said in the series. 'It was one of those where I gotta see it until I believe it.' Despite his initial doubt, Mahomes said it became clear once he saw the couple together that there was a real connection. Swift's appearance at Arrowhead during the Chiefs' Week 3 game against the Chicago Bears confirmed the relationship and sparked a media frenzy. Mahomes added: 'You definitely felt the buzz and you could see people in the stadium gravitating towards where she was up there. At the same time, we had business to handle.' Since then, she's become a regular presence at Chiefs games, often spotted in suites alongside Brittany Mahomes, Patrick's wife. Swift and Brittany have developed their own close friendship, frequently seen cheering together on game days and attending off-field events in the season. The two were photographed celebrating victories, attending dinners, and enjoying nights out in New York alongside other high-profile friends. Meanwhile, this week, Swift aimed a not so subtle dig at male NFL fans when appearing on Kelce's podcast, New Heights. 'As we all know, you guys have a lot of male sports fans that listen to your podcast, and I think we all know that if there's one thing that male sports fans want to see in their spaces and on their screens, it's more of me,' she said tongue in cheek. Swift was awkwardly jeered in February when she rocked up to Caesars Superdome to cheer on Travis and the Kansas City Chiefs. The pop sensation was met with boos from large parts of the 66,000-strong crowd when she appeared on the jumbotron for the first time during the Super Bowl, which the Chiefs ultimately lost in humiliating fashion to the Philadelphia Eagles. With the stadium seemingly boasting more Eagles fans than members of Chiefs Kingdom, Swift did not get a nice reception when cameras zoomed in on her before the carnage unfolded. The 35-year-old singer appeared to notice the booing, giving a mocking side-eye response as the noise mercilessly rang out around the packed stadium.

Who are the Match of the Day presenters and pundits for the 2025/26 season?

AS the Premier League kicks off again, it's time to get to know a new roster of presenters helming the Saturday evening highlights on Match of the Day. This will be the first series of the show without Gary Lineker, who made his final appearance as Match of the Day host back in May. Who is replacing Gary Lineker on Match of the Day? The BBC announced in January that the new Match of the Day hosts would be Kelly Cates, Mark Chapman and Gabby Logan. 2 BBC Sports mainstay Logan is a household name from her work presenting Sports Personality of the Year, as well as regularly standing in for Gary Lineker on Match of the Day. Cates is best known for her coverage of the Premier League for Sky Sports, while Chapman will be familiar to viewers for his long-running position as a rugby league presenter at the BBC. The three stars will share the presenting duties across the weekends, with Match of the Day 2 now rebranded to just Match of the Day. Chapman is hosting the opening MOTD of the season on Saturday night, with Logan on the Sunday night. Who are the Match of the Day pundits? Wayne Rooney has joined the MOTD set up for punditry duties. The ex-England captain, 39, netted a huge two-year deal and will be officially unveiled this month. Rooney is also signed up as a panellist for the BBC's 2026 World Cup coverage from the US, Mexico and Canada. The Premier League's record goalscorer Alan Shearer joins Rooney on his official debut show. While Joe Hart and Danny Murphy will be the pundits alongside Logan on Sunday's show. Why did Gary Lineker leave Match of the Day? Gary Lineker announced he was stepping down from the BBC in November 2024, after over 25 years with the broadcaster. It was initially reported that Lineker would present the BBC's FA Cup and 2026 World Cup coverage as a 'farewell', but he was then sacked from the BBC entirely following an antisemitism row earlier this year. After facing criticism for posting a cartoon that represented supporters of Israel as rats, Lineker stated that "stepping back now feels like the responsible course of action." Will Lineker do any presenting on other shows? Gary Lineker is now set to front game show The Box on ITV. Originating in Norway, the format involves celebrities being trapped in boxes and having to complete daring challenges. Gary will also be continuing his work with his podcast company Goalhanger Productions, where he fronts The Rest Is Football with fellow Match of the Day hosts Alan Shearer and Micah Richards.
