Lindsey Burrow reveals how Kevin Sinfield's small gesture became 'turning point' for husband Rob in battle with MND

Rob and Lindsey Burrow paid special thanks to Kevin Sinfield on ITV This Morning today (May 24).

Kevin Sinfield appeared on ITV This Morning on Wednesday along with Rob Burrow and his wife Lindsey via video link from their home in Leeds. He spoke of the pair's heart-warming finish at the Rob Burrow marathon in the city on Sunday, May 14, which saw Kevin carry his best friend across the finish line and reduce people to tears.

In this morning's episode of the ITV show, Rob's wife, Lindsey, told viewers: "Kevin has stood by Rob from day one and even after his diagnosis he took Rob up to see the great late Doddie Weir and that was a real turning point for us because Doddie gave Rob so much hope and that has been instilled in Rob in his battle and fight with MND."
