How many children does Ben have?
Ben and wife Annie Perks have two children together.
Last year Ben announced he would be stepping down from presenting on Goals on Sunday so he could spend more time with his family.

“I often work six days a week, filming Tipping Point in Bristol from Monday to Wednesday.
“So Saturday is the only day I get to spend with the boys and because I’m tired it’s often a washout.
Ben went on to say how he has loved working on Goals on Sunday but wants to be more involved in his family life.
“Doing Goals on Sunday has been amazing, but I can see that not only will we all benefit as a family, but I’ll benefit too from being more involved in their weekend life.
“If there are things we can share, football, cricket, golf, these are days that I will be able to cherish for a long, long time.”
Ninja Warrior UK will continue tonight on ITV at 6.30pm.
