Olympic champion Helen Glover makes exciting announcement and reveals husband Steve Backshall's reaction - exclusive
March 27, 2023 - 12:09 BST Emily Horan When rower Helen Glover made a sensational comeback at the Tokyo Olympic Games in 2021, she blazed a trail not just for women in sport, but for all mothers, by showing it's possible to achieve your biggest goals as a mum of three.
"There was a [rowing] trial in November and Steve said to me: 'I really think you should do it.' If he wasn't on board and so invested in and excited by it, it wouldn't be possible," Helen says of her supportive husband, with whom she shares Logan, four, and three-year-old twins Kit and Bo. Her history-making return to competition in Tokyo five years later made Helen the first mum to row in a British Olympic team - and her sights are set even higher for her Paris bid."I'd love to win a medal. Imagining myself standing on the podium in Paris is what excites me at the moment. One of my motivations is that the children will be able to really be part of it. I’d love to think that they’ll come out and watch in the stands; it would be amazing.
