Ben Shephard on wife Annie’s ‘upset’
During an episode of This Morning last month, Ben and co-host Cat Deeley spoke about the AA’s call for new drivers under 21 to be banned from carrying passengers of a similar age.
Making a rare home life confession, Ben shared that after his eldest son Sam had passed his test, and asked to take out his younger brother Jack out in the car. But it seems Annie was not too happy about it.
“Sam passed and he said: ‘I want to take Jack out.’ Sam’s 18 and Jack was 16. So I said: ‘Yeah, great. Go for it,'” Ben revealed.
He went on: “Annie got really upset and said: ‘Oh, I’m not sure about this.’
