The daughter of renowned BBC presenter Gabby Logan has revealed what her dad, Kenny, told his broadcaster wife as their daughter prepares for a huge challenge.
After walking down the aisle in 2001, it was just four years later that Gabby and Kenny welcomed their twin children together, Lois and Reuben.
‌
Now 19, the siblings are well on their way to following in their parents' sporting footsteps, with Reuben currently playing for rugby union side Sale Sharks, while Lois is pursuing a career in show jumping alongside her university studies. During a recent interview with Hello! magazine, Lois shared how her mum initially pushed her toward playing tennis when she was younger.
‌
However, despite Gabby's early hopes for her daughter to pursue tennis, Lois's passion for horses actually developed after an ultimatum from her mum when the family moved to their home in Buckinghamshire. Gabby told her daughter: 'You can learn to play chess, ballroom dance, or ride a horse.'

After choosing the latter and continuing to excel at the sport, Lois shared how her dad, Kenny, jokingly told Gabby that she only had herself to blame for Lois opting for show jumping over tennis, saying: 'Gabby, you created this monster.'

Lois added that, while her parents initially thought her love of show jumping would be a passing phase, 'I think they thought I'd grow out of it, but if anything, it's got stronger and stronger.'
Lois's interview with Hello! comes ahead of her participation in this month's Markel Magnolia Cup at the Qatar Goodwood Festival. As she prepares for what is expected to be a hotly contested race against 11 other competitors, Lois admitted: 'I've never done anything as brutal as this before.'

Meanwhile, in recent months, Gabby has opened up about adapting to her new way of life after both of her and Kenny's children moved out of their Buckinghamshire home.
During an episode of the White Wine Question Time podcast earlier this year, Gabby spoke fondly of Lois: 'She's very thoughtful, and she's very motivated, very determined.'

Away from raising her family alongside Kenny, Gabby's own career has continued to flourish. Following her success as part of the BBC's coverage of the 2012 Olympic Games, she has since been involved in countless high-profile sporting events.
Next month will mark yet another major career milestone as she joins Mark Chapman and Kelly Cates in a new-look trio of presenters on Match of the Day.
