The 51-year-old TV star took to to defend herself after coming under fire for her use of the phrase during BBC Olympics coverage.
The 51-year-old TV star took to X, formerly known as Twitter , to defend herself after she used the phrase 'c**k up' on two separate occasions during her BBC coverage of the Olympic Games on Friday.
Speaking to the BBC Athletics panel, Gabby commented during her broadcast. "OK, we've just had a kind of spoiler alert if you've just joined us on BBC One because Michael said, especially the way the USA c**ked up, so let's go back and see the whole of that 4x100m relay in the men's final," reports the Express.
"In the 17th and 18th centuries people were also often advised to 'c**k up' their bonnets, eyes and even legs. The expression 'c**k a snooker' also derives from that same sense of 'c**k." Fans were quick to rally behind the sports commentator with @leshuguenots agreeing: "It's not in the slightest bit rude."
