Former England footballer Michael Owen says he has difficulty showing emotions, including telling his children he loves them, in remarks shared alongside a new fly-on-the-wall docuseries.
According to the reports, Owen discusses his approach to parenting while presenting a candid view of his life as a father of four. He describes himself as not being the kind of parent who readily provides “soft love,” and he says he has not told his children he loves them.
The coverage is largely aligned in what Owen says and the context in which it is presented: a new documentary format that offers an inside look at his family life. Both outlets frame the statements as personal reflections rather than allegations or news of any external incident, focusing on his own admission about emotional expression.
