The former Sky Sports presenter was due to depart Qatar upon the expiration of his beIN Sports contract but has landed back in England early amidst the current unrest.‌Keys will become available on the broadcasting scene once again after leaving beIN, having spent 13 years working in the UAE alongside long-time presenting partner Andy Gray. While he has plenty of years under his belt with Sky Sports, a sexism scandal that broke alongside controversy surrounding his love life have made him a divisive figure in the industry.‌The 68-year-old has also reunited with his long-distance wife Lucie Rose, whom he married in 2023 despite being 31 years her senior. The Telegraph reports that the couple are set to move in together following his return to the UK after sharing a long-distance relationship over the last three years.‌Keys met his new wife in Qatar at a golf event and the pair have dealt with plenty of backlash for their age-gap relationship. The three-decade disparity isn't the only thing to grab headlines; the lawyer was friends with Keys' daughter Jemma and she refused to move to the Middle East, instead waiting until the presenter returned to the UK after leaving beIN.JOIN US ON FACEBOOK!
