Former cricketer and sports commentator Greg Blewett, and his wife Katheryn, welcomed their first child together on January 17, and named their son Samuel Hugh. Samuel is named after Katheryn’s father, who passed away suddenly in 2012, while his middle name is in honour of cricketer Phillip Hughes, who died in a freak cricketing accident last November. Greg has a teenaged daughter named Taylor from his previous marriage to Jodie Blewett, now Jodie Oddy, who has been featured on the blog as a celebrity mum.
