Gabby Logan’s huge net worth, new job with BBC, rugby ace son and sport star husband

Gabby Logan is set to host the BBC’s coverage of the Women’s Euro 2025 final between England and Spain on Sunday, but what do we know about the legendary sports presenter away from the screens?

Gabby Logan is set to provide coverage for the highly anticipated Women’s Euro 2025 final between England and Spain on Sunday. The Lionesses stamped their ticket to St. Jakob-Park in heroic fashion on Tuesday with a last-minute 2-1 win over Italy.

Barbara Bonansea opened the scoring for Le Azzurre before a Michelle Agyemang strike sent the game to extra time. Chloe Kelly later netted a rebound from her missed spot kick to win the tie for England. Spain, meanwhile, stamped their own place in Sunday’s final with a 1-0 win over Germany on Wednesday.

Logan will host coverage of the fixture between England and Spain for the BBC, as the Lionesses look to defend their crown from three years ago. But what do we know about the legendary host both on and off screen? Here, Mirror Football breaks it down…

Gabby Logan’s substantial net worth

Since launching her broadcasting career in 1992, Logan has held some prestigious positions and covered many flagship events for several broadcasters. She teamed up with Sky Sports in 1996, at a time when the industry was dominated by males, quickly becoming a recognisable face of British TV.

She was selected as the host of Sport Relief in 2004 and joined the BBC permanently. In the years since, the 52-year-old has hosted her own morning show on BBC Radio 5 Live, worked on Final Score, Inside Sport, the Invictus Games, MOTD Six Nations, and The One Show, and has also had the privilege of covering the 2022 World Cup and 2024 Olympics in Paris.

As a result of her professional endeavours, Logan is estimated to have racked up a significant fortune of around £4million, making her the highest female earner in the world of sports journalism. As per Sportcasting via SPORTbible, Logan also ranked seventh in a list of Britain’s highest-earning sports presenters and pundits last year, with a salary of £210,000.

A new role with the BBC

As Gary Lineker announced that 2024/25 would be his final Premier League season at the helm of Match of the Day, the BBC was quick to rethink the set-up of their flagship football highlights show. And as a result, top chiefs decided not to replace Lineker, who had held tenure since 1999, with just one fresh face, but with three.

For 2025/26, Logan will join Mark Chapman and Kelly Cates to front the programme, a move that she believes will give the show a completely different edge. Speaking about her new role, she said: “I think what’s interesting is that although we’re sharing the role, we won’t actually be working together on Match of the Day.

“It’s really great to share it because we bring different experiences and different interests within the game. We bring different ways of broadcasting and that will mean our pundits are kept on their toes and share different kinds of analysis.”

It is reported that Logan, Chapman and Cates will split presenting duties on Match of the Day, MOTD 2 and MOTD: Champions League. It is the first time in history that three presenters will share the role.

A sporting husband and a rugby star son

Away from the screens, Logan has been married to rugby union star Kenny Logan since 2001, with the two striking up a romance after meeting in a bar in Chelsea. During his career as a winger, Kenny won three English Premierships with Wasps RFC and a Scottish Premiership title with Stirling County.

He also represented his nation of Scotland on 70 occasions, racking up 220 points before retiring in 2004. The two welcomed twins with one another in 2005 in the form of Reuben and Lois.

And Reuben has ultimately gone on to follow in his father’s footsteps in rugby union as a career choice, with the 19-year-old kicking off his career as a flanker with Wasps at academy level in 2023. A move to Northampton Saints ensued the same year, where he remains to this day, although he spent last season on loan with Cambridge.

However, it appears as though the Scotland U20 star will be on the move once more ahead of 2025/26, with Sale Sharks announcing the acquisition of the talent back in April. Speaking about the move, he said: “This is a great opportunity for me to play with and learn from some fantastic coaches and players – like the Curry brothers – who play in my position.”
