Kate Abdo’s boyfriend, Malik Scott, has no issues with jokes made about Arsenal legend Thierry Henry’s apparent ‘crush’ on the presenter.
Scott, who is the trainer of heavyweight boxer Deontay Wilder, has insisted that he sees the humour in the jokes and is comfortable with the show. Abdo and Scott’s relationship has been mentioned on CBS’s Champions League coverage on numerous occassions and Jamie Carragher even landed himself in hot-water after a poorly made ‘joke’.
On the jokes about Henry, Scott told Inclave Casino: “All of that stuff is all good, man. I’ve never been a man who has been insecure in a relationship. I don’t know how to go about jealousy and things of that nature.
“I enjoy the show, the relationships, the love, and whatever makes the chemistry pop for the show, as long as Kate is not disrespected or irritated.
“I don’t have insecurities or jealousy when someone I’m seeing is working around other men, as long as she’s being respectful and she’s being respected, I’m totally fine with it.
“It’s a very special show and it has a very special girl on there and she’s about to be Mrs. Scott soon.”
CBS’s coverage of the Champions League has been lauded for its insight, humour and entertainment and will return again this week ahead of the quarter-finals. Abdo hosts the show and is joined by Henry, Carragher and Micah Richards.
As Scott said, he hopes that him and Abdo will be married soon. The boxing trainer will no doubt be tuning in to watch his beloved presenting again next week as Real Madrid take on Manchester City and Arsenal face Bayern Munich on Tuesday.
