Gabby had told her podcast The Midpoint hubby Kenny was still “fully functioning” following a prostate cancer op.

It would be helpful if you could just shut up for a while’.
“And I’m like, ‘Actually Reuben, next week’s episode — just on that’.”
Gabby, 51, added: “We don’t just talk about my sex life, can I just say.”
Former Scotland international Kenny had previously revealed the couple’s sex life was not what it once was after his cancer recovery.
He was diagnosed with prostate cancer in 2022 before undergoing treatment on the disease.
Research has shown that 76 per cent of men who are treated for prostate cancer experience erectile dysfunction.
Appearing on his wife’s podcast last year, he explained: “Six months on, I would say I’m physically 100 per cent, mentally 100 per cent, feel good.
“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.”
It came after he had revealed many men use a penis pump to help get back to normal erectile function.
During an episode of The Midpoint podcast in September 2022, Gabby joked: “You’ve been getting to grips with your penis pump on your own!”
Kenny hit back by adding: “If you ever walk in and see my penis pump, you’ve got to get out.”
The 52-year-old former wing made 70 appearances for Scotland during his career.
Son Reuben is into his second year as a professional at Northampton, having made his debut in September 2023.
The flanker has also featured for England at under-18 level and been named in the under-20 squad in the past.

JAKE PAUL is in line for a career change that is “not easy to do” after his boxing fight with Mike Tyson.
The YouTuber-turned-boxer faces heavyweight great Tyson on November 15 in a clash that has attracted controversy over the age gap.
Mike Tyson facing off with Jake Paul[/caption]But Paul is also primed to make his MMA debut next year after signing a deal with the Professional Fighters League.
PFL CEO Peter Murray revealed the American could cross over from the ring to the cage right after fighting Tyson.
He told Sportskeeda: “Yeah, we’re lining it up.
“Obviously, Jake is finishing up boxing this year, with this massive fight against Mike Tyson.
“Then a lot of planning is going into Jake Paul’s debut in 2025 and we’ll be sharing those details after Jake gets in the ring with Mike Tyson and we lay out our schedule for Super Fights next year.”
Paul is 10-1 as a boxer with his only defeat coming against Tommy Fury in February 2023 – a month before signing with the PFL.
And the PFL publicly offered Fury £15m to rematch Paul in the ring before a trilogy bout in the cage.
The 2019 Love Island star – who recently split with Molly-Mae Hague – has since called out Paul to an MMA bout.
Murray meanwhile promised that Paul’s debut MMA opponent will be a notable one.
He said: “Plenty of options and Jake is committed to fighting a very, very credible, well-rounded MMA fighter, and [it’s] not easy to do.
“It’s not easy to cross over from boxing into MMA. You know, the crossover from MMA or other disciplines into boxing is a lot easier.”
