Gabby Logan has admitted that 'things aren't great' after her daughter Lois revealed she feels 'scared' when visiting London. The 20-year-old university student said she dreads the capital's bustling crowds and worries about having her phone or handbag stolen.
During an episode of Gabby's Mid-point podcast, Lois explained that while she found Soho 'vibrant', she generally does not enjoy London. She described the number of people as 'overwhelming' and recalled a Christmas trip when she told her mother, 'Oh god, I hate this!'
Lois added: 'I’m kind of scared someone is going to mug my phone or my handbag now. My arm is clamped under my shoulder.' Gabby, 53, noted that crime rates have been declining, with Metropolitan Police figures showing an 11-year low in homicides and a 21 percent reduction in theft from person. However, she acknowledged that anecdotally, 'things aren't great'.
The family, who live in Buckinghamshire, often record the podcast at home. Lois admitted she would be 'very happy' left alone in a field with a horse or cow, but also enjoys socialising and a good pub. Her father Kenny joked, 'As long as the grass is good.'
