Kenny Logan has revealed he didn’t have sex with his wife Gaby on their first date but did ‘accidentally’ leave his soggy boxers in her car.
The retired rugby union player, 50, who recently opened up about the couple’s sex life after his prostate cancer treatment, recalled the embarrassing mishap and said it ‘took them weeks’ to get intimate.
Fortunately the date wasn’t too much of a disaster, with the Welsh presenter, 49, believing the mistake was actually his ‘calling card’.
Speaking on her Mid Point podcast, Kenny said he had stashed the official Wimbledon Ralph Lauren pants down the side of the car seat after she offered him a lift and reiterated that it was not the result of a sexual endeavour.
But when he arrive home, he forgot to take the under pants with him, leaving his future wife to be with the ‘horrific boxers.’

He began: ‘I left my pants in the car. I had these Wimbledon boxer shorts. “I went for a shower and I thought ‘Oh my god, these boxers are horrific’.
‘And as I got out the shower, and the shower had leaked a little bit, so they were all wet.
‘So I had to put my trousers on without any boxers. So I had the boxers in my hand and as I got in the car I just sort of slightly put them down the side of the car.
‘I thought “I’ll pick them up when I leave”, Of course I left these wet boxers.’
Gabby added: ‘I dropped him off, less these boxers, and then I was driving to Birmingham and then I found these boxers in the car, so I thought it was his calling card.’
‘I’ve got them in a box of keepsakes’ she revealed while Kenny joked: ‘It was a clue for her – I can’t fit in them now.’
He went on to point out that although it was their first night together they hadn’t had sex, admitting: ‘It took us weeks.’
Gabby quipped: ‘Let me just say say they were official Wimbledon, so they were Ralph Lauren.’

‘It clearly wasn’t insurmountable you wearing boxer shorts. It all worked out in the end,’ she confirmed.
The confession comes after Kenny opened up about his sex life with Gabby, after receiving treatment to cure his prostate cancer.
Now, he has thankfully received the all-clear and while he says he is at ‘100 per cent’ mentally and physically he admits that his sex life is not ‘consistent’.
He got extremely candid about the after-effects of treatment, saying they left him ‘black and blue downstairs’.
Speaking to The Telegraph, he said: ‘Whether it be my dyslexia, my relationship, IVF, we’ve always been quite open. So, I was quite happy to talk about erectile dysfunction and all these other things because I was like, “It is a symptom”.’

Kenny went on: ‘From a sexual point of view, it’s not consistent. As the surgeon said to me, this could take 18 months. Within a month, I was getting movement, where he says, “That’s amazing”. So it’s just not as consistent. The beauty is you can take a tablet and it changes things.’
Kenny and presenter Gabby have been married for over 20 years and share two children together.
He explained that his brave honesty was motivated by his desire to help other people.
Reiterating the need for all men his age to get checked, he said: ‘If I can help one person, that’d be great. But I’ve probably helped a lot of people with the coverage it had.’

It comes after Kenny appeared on BBC Breakfast in September with his wife and said he had no symptoms and ‘had to go looking for it’ in a stark warning about how insidious prostate cancer can be.
‘I literally fell over,’ he said of the February 7 diagnosis. ‘I didn’t see it coming. No symptoms whatsoever… It’s hard.
‘I found I had prostate cancer by accident. If you have symptoms it might be too late. Guys go get tested, simple and could save your life.’
The couple, who have been married 21 years, said Logan was ‘extremely lucky’ they caught it early, which afforded him options regarding treatment.
