Gabby, a former gymnast who competed for both Wales and Great Britain, has cemented her place in the media world, while Kenny was an iconic figure in rugby, earning 70 caps for Scotland.
Together, they've not only made their mark in their respective careers, but they've also raised two incredibly talented twins, Reuben and Lois, who are continuing the family legacy in their own unique ways.

Ruben Logan: A Rugby Legacy in the Making

Reuben Logan, following in his father’s footsteps, has entered the professional rugby scene with style. Having progressed through Wasps Academy, he joined Northampton Saints in 2023, where his back-row prowess has already caught the eye. His rugby journey hasn’t been confined to just England, though.
While he could have represented Wales, thanks to his grandfather Terry Yorath – the former Wales football manager – Reuben has chosen to follow in Kenny’s path and represent Scotland, featuring for the Scotland U20s in the Six Nations.
A versatile player with an eye for the breakdown, Ruben has even featured for Bedford Blues, adding more impressive experience to his growing resume. It’s safe to say the Logan rugby legacy is in very good hands.

Lois Logan: Showjumping Star

While Reuben is making waves on the rugby field, twin sister Lois is turning heads in the world of showjumping. This rising star qualified for the prestigious Horse Of The Year Show in 2021, a remarkable achievement for someone so young.
Lois’ passion for equestrian sport has taken her to major events like the Andalucía Sunshine Tour, where she’s shown she has what it takes to compete at the highest level. Representing Great Britain, Lois is fast becoming a force to be reckoned with in the showjumping world. Her determination, focus, and undeniable talent are driving her to even greater heights.

Gabby & Kenny Logan: Still Going Strong

As for Gabby and Kenny, they’re still living life to the fullest. Gabby continues to light up screens as one of the UK’s most respected sports broadcasters, while Kenny remains deeply involved in the rugby world, offering his expertise. Between Gabby’s media success, Kenny’s rugby legacy, and their talented twins, the Logan family is shaping up to be an unstoppable force in the world of sport.
It’s clear: the Logan twins are the next generation of sporting excellence, and we can’t wait to see where their careers take them next.

Three England Stars Who Could Lose Their Central Contracts

Last October, England handed out 17 enhanced Elite Player Squad (EPS) contracts as part of the shiny new Professional Game Partnership deal.
It gave head coach Steve Borthwick more control than ever, including the final word on all sports science and medical matters.
Among the big winners were George Ford, Marcus Smith and Fin Smith – all three fly-halves receiving upgraded deals ahead of the autumn internationals.
But fast forward six months, and not all those golden ticket holders are sitting pretty. We take a look at three players who could be on the chopping block ahead of the next round of central contract decisions.

#1. Henry Slade – The Class Act Losing His Place

Slade’s silky style has long made him a favourite with fans – but his Six Nations was anything but smooth. Once pencilled in as a midfield maestro, he now finds himself completely out of Borthwick’s 23.
His combination with Ollie Lawrence never quite clicked, and although there were flickers of promise, it wasn't enough to convince the coaches. Slade was ultimately cast aside in favour of Fraser Dingwall, and now his England future – and his central contract – looks seriously uncertain.
Possible replacement: Fraser Dingwall
The mid-Six Nations switch that saw him take Slade's place has given Dingwall a solid opportunity to make a real push for a long-term role in the squad. A gritty and intelligent player, he’s an ideal fit in the centre and could continue his rise with consistent performances.

#2. Theo Dan – The Rise and Fall

Dan looked to be the hooker-in-waiting not long ago, but with Luke Cowan-Dickie back in the mix and firing, the Saracen has tumbled down the pecking order.
He managed just a single appearance in the 2025 Six Nations, coming off the bench late against Ireland when the game was already slipping away.
He gave it his all and made his presence felt in the collisions, but the timing didn’t allow for a real impact.
With Jamie George still first choice and LCD surging back, Dan might be sweating over that central contract renewal.
Possible replacement: Luke Cowan-Dickie
With the England hooker pool still fairly tight, LCD’s return to form after a spell on the sidelines could see him leapfrog others back into the starting role. His set-piece mastery and work rate up front could be enough to secure him a spot, especially with competition thinning out.

#3. George Ford – Still Magic, But Marginalised

Here’s the big one. Ford, the experienced general with nearly a century of caps, has found himself on the fringes thanks to Fin Smith’s electric rise.
He only got a sliver of game time during the Championship – a brief stint against Wales – but what a cameo it was.
Two assists and a masterclass in game management. Classic Ford: overlooked, underrated, but undeniably brilliant.
With both Smiths tipped for Lions duty this summer, Ford will have a golden window to remind everyone – including Borthwick – why he still deserves that England contract.
Possible replacement: Jack van Poortvliet (this would even up the squad with two scrum-halves and two fly-halves)
A real option for the future at scrum-half, van Poortvliet could offer Borthwick the ideal balance in the half-back department. With the potential for two fly-halves and two scrum-halves in the squad, van Poortvliet's dynamism and composure could provide the extra spark needed to even things out.
