Rob Burrow has taken to social media to praise his wife Lindsey saying she 'smashed' her appearance on national TV yesterday despite hating the limelight.
Lindsey, 40, is a full-time carer for Rob who was first diagnosed with Motor Neurone Disease (MND) in 2019. She appeared on Lorraine on Wednesday morning to speak about life since the former Rugby League superstar's diagnosis and to continue to raise awareness about the disease and push for more research funding.
Lindsey spoke bravely about how the pair broke the news to their children and about the day-to-day difficulties that the family now face. Rob retired from professional sport in 2017, less than two years before his devastating diagnosis, and was initially told he had two years maximum to live.
