Early life

[edit]

Gabrielle Nicole Yorath was born on 24 April 1973 in Leeds in the West Riding of Yorkshire to former Wales international footballer and manager Terry Yorath, who was playing for Leeds United at the time,[5] and his wife, Christine. The family moved frequently because her father played for a number of British teams as well as in Canada with the Vancouver Whitecaps.[6] She attended Cardinal Heenan High School and Notre Dame Sixth Form College in Leeds. She played netball at school and at university and also competed in the high jump, but the peak of her sporting career was when she placed 11th in rhythmic gymnastics representing Wales at the 1990 Commonwealth Games in Auckland.[7] She became interested in football during her regular attendances at her father's matches. Her mother went out of a "sense of duty".[6] Along with her brother and sister, she was in the crowd at Valley Parade on 11 May 1985, the day of the Bradford City stadium fire. She had left the stand only moments before the fire took hold and watched the unfolding disaster.[8]

Her debut TV appearance was when she was chosen as the Leeds Rose for the 1991 Rose of Tralee competition.[9][10][11]

Early career

[edit]

After studying law at Durham University,[12] Logan began presenting on Metro Radio in Newcastle, and on Tyne Tees Television on their Tonight programme, from where she was offered a job as a presenter on Sky Sports in 1996. She worked there until 1998, when she joined the ITV TV network.[6]
