The partner of popular TV broadcaster Kate Abdo, Malik Scott, has admitted he has "no ill feelings" over Jamie Carragher after the Liverpool legend's controversial on-air remark in March regarding his girlfriend.

During CBS' coverage of the Champions League meeting between Arsenal and Porto at Emirates Stadium, Carragher was wearing an Arsenal shirt following a request to do so by Bukayo Saka and told Abdo and Thierry Henry they would be next to wear the shirt of the north London club.

Abdo responded to this claim by stating she is "loyal to Manchester United", to which Carragher joked "not to Malik".



A moment of silence then followed with Henry, Abdo and Micah Richards seemingly unsure of what to say after this unexpected remark catching them off-guard.

Scott, a former heavyweight boxer, subsequently threatened to "show up in a physical manner" if the former Liverpool centre-back failed to pick up his call after his partner was left upset, though has made clear there is no bad blood between the pair after a recent meeting.

I felt no ill feelings when we met.

I never had a strong opinion about Jamie Carragher, only about the things that he said, but meeting him, I really enjoyed the man’s company.

And Micah is the humour source of their show, they’re the best panel."

Also admitting she is over the incident, Abdo last month told iFLTV: "What Jamie said came from nowhere.
