Jermaine Jenas pulls a face as 'best mate' Jermaine Pennant jokes about 'carnage', as the pair appear together on talkSPORT radio. This comes after the BBC announced the Match of the Day pundit has been sacked for 'inappropriate behaviour'.
Jermaine Jenas was BBC 's new golden boy on the fast-track to TV superstardom who had even been tipped to be the next Match of The Day host.
But the retired football ace proved so popular that in May 2021 he was bagged a prized slot presenting full-time alongside Alex Jones Monday to Wednesday. He also admitted that the pair had to work through their differences and that the couple enjoyed separate holidays.
'In the summer and coming up now she will usual go to Ibiza with her mates and have a good blowout and that's for her not to have to wake up or think about the kids, and I've just come back from Scotland playing three days of golf and she will say the same to me, go and play golf, relax, enjoy yourself.'Jenas filming The One Show in October 2021
He has managed to build a successful TV career off the back of his playing days, working not only for the BBC, both on TV and radio, but also with TNT Sports where he's worked on the channel's football coverage as a pundit and Formula E as host. 'We decided to start having a conversation whenever we felt anything. She would say, 'Jermaine, I feel like I'm not seeing you enough' or 'I feel like I'm doing too much around the house, I'm not getting my life back enough' and just getting there before the crisis hit.
Jenas has also recently spoken candidly about his heartache over his eldest daughter being raise din America as he continues to co-parent with his ex-partner. Jermaine said: 'It was a tough one for me and a tough one for my daughter, but I didn't want to get in the way of my ex moving on with her life.
'She picks him up and walks around the house with him on her hip, it is crazy for me because she was a baby and I watched her crawl around the same house that I'm in now and she's picking up my son and I'm like, that's your brother, I can't get my head around it… it's all gone so fast.'
