Tommy Bowe was forced to defend himself on live Virgin Media television this morning after admitting he bought his wife a hoover as a Christmas present.
The Virgin Media presenter was hosting a segment on weird Christmas gifts alongside fellow presenter Muireann O’Connell. The discussion prompted Muireann to reveal that Tommy himself was no stranger to unconventional presents, having bought his wife Lucy Whitehouse a hoover several Christmases ago.
Tommy, mildly embarrassed, admitted that the gift didn’t go down as well as expected. However, he doubled down on the usefulness of the purchase, as the hoover is still in use in the Bowe family home.
