Sky Sports presenter Natalie Pinkham admits she and TV executive husband Owain Walbyoff fight over how much cleavage she should show

by

Natalie Pinkham, a presenter for Sky Sports, has revealed that she and her husband frequently argue about how revealing her clothing is, specifically regarding her cleavage.

I’ve always admired how confidently she presents herself, and I recently heard on the Style DNA podcast that a big part of that comes from her husband, Owain Walbyoff. Apparently, he actually encourages her to embrace her figure and wear what she wants, even when she feels more comfortable being covered up. It’s so lovely to hear she has that kind of support!

Natalie explained that women often dress to impress other women, admitting it’s a common truth. She added that her husband has very definite preferences and isn’t afraid to share them.

Oh my gosh, even when he doubts it – he’ll be like, ‘I’m not sure about that,’ – I *still* rock it! Because honestly, *I* love it, and I know my friends will too. And I just *know* other women watching will want it – it’s going to be a hit, I can feel it!

‘And he’ll probably get a bit of a grump that I haven’t taken his point on.’

Natalie, a Formula One presenter for over ten years, shared that Owain, the former head of Endemol Shine Group (known for shows like Big Brother, MasterChef, and Black Mirror), has repeatedly commented on her clothing, specifically her neckline.

He’s a big fan of fashion, but prefers a really simple, understated style. He usually sticks to basics like a T-shirt and jeans.

He’s very attracted to the female form, and specifically enjoys seeing curves. He’s told me he prefers clothing that accentuates a woman’s figure, even saying he wants to be able to see breasts. I, on the other hand, am not comfortable with showing that much, but he encourages me to feel more confident in my body and embrace my shape.

She added: ‘It’s funny what they see because you’d think he’d want me to cover up.’

The couple got together in the late 2000s and married in 2012. They have two children: ten-year-old Wilf and eight-year-old Willow. Their wedding was attended by several well-known faces, including Princess Eugenie, Zara Tindall, and TV personalities Kirsty Gallacher, Georgie Thompson, and the late Caroline Flack.

Natalie shared that her husband’s ideal outfit for her on a date night is something sexy and revealing, like a backless dress. However, she mentioned that they don’t get to go on dates very often.

She explained that moments like that don’t happen much. She’d actually suggested they go on a date, but he asked what they would even talk about. She admitted it was a fair question, and suggested they could just relax and have drinks.

On the podcast with former fashion designer Amanda Wakeley, Natalie shared that she prioritizes comfort when choosing clothes and considers herself a ‘tomboy’.

She also talked about her well-known friendship with Prince Harry. They were part of the same social group when she was a teenager, and for many years, the media portrayed her as one of his closest female friends.

Natalie and Prince Harry were very close. In fact, in 2003, she reportedly introduced Harry to Mike Tindall, a rising rugby star who later married Zara Phillips, Princess Anne’s daughter. Natalie also moved in the same circles as Chelsy Davy, Harry’s girlfriend at the time.

Rumours swirled that the pair briefly dated – but Natalie has now set the record straight.

“That rumor wasn’t true, and I apologize,” she said. “It’s okay, I’ve known him for years – we’ve been friends since I was seventeen and he was twelve. We’ve always just been friends, never anything romantic.”

Unfortunately, there’s no news about seeing a cougar. I wish I had a more exciting story to tell!

Reports indicate that Harry and his friend drifted apart after Harry started dating Meghan Markle in 2016.

Reports suggest Meghan felt uncomfortable with Prince Harry remaining close to female friends from before their relationship became serious. Some sources claim that women like Natalie and Caroline Flack gradually became more distant once Harry and Meghan’s relationship deepened.
