Former rugby professional Rob Burrow appeared on Good Morning Britain on Friday alongside his wife Lindsey to speak about his book titled 'Too Many Reasons To Live'. Known as one of the most famous Rugby League players of all time and the "smallest player in the Super League" at just 5 ft 5 inches, Rob spent 16 years in the game before retiring in 2017.
Tragically in 2019 Rob was diagnosed with Motor Neurone Disease and given just 2 years to live. But two and a half years on, he is continuing his fight to survive and has set out to inspire people to live their lives to the fullest.
Now confined to a wheelchair, Rob is able to communicate through an eye-driven device and is cared for full-time by his wife Lindsey. His interview with hosts Kate Garraway and Ben Shephard had ITV viewers in tears as they hailed the sporting star a 'true inspiration'.
