Greg Rutherford is video bombed by his two sons during interview


‘I’m glad I’m not the only one!’ Viewers left in stitches as Greg Rutherford is video bombed by his sons bouncing on the bed during ‘relatable’ live interview from home

Greg Rutherford was adorably interrupted by his two young children while giving an interview on how to keep children busy while in isolation amid the COVID-19 crisis.

The Olympic athlete, 33, appeared on BBC Breakfast to discuss how he is managing self-isolation and give tips on how he has kept his kids entertained on Saturday.

However his sons Milo, six, and Rex, two, appeared to have no intention of leaving their dad to get on with the chat, as they hilariously video-bombed the interview.

Ha! Greg Rutherford was adorably interrupted by his two young children while giving an interview on how to keep children busy while in isolation amid the COVID-19 crisis

As Greg began talking about the children, they ran and and Greg said: ‘Sorry, they’re now running in… just trying to keep them active and trying to keep them busy is obviously hugely important.’

The boys then began passing their dad items and he can be heard saying ‘thank you mate’, before they then bounced along in the background of the video.

He then apologised and said: ‘I’m sorry, that’s the really big thing if you can keep it fun for them, then they going to have a great time keeping themselves fit and active.’
