Good Morning Britain viewers have been left in tears after football legend Chris Kamara became emotional while discussing his battle with speech apraxia.
The 65 year old ex player and Soccer Saturday pundit, known affectionately as Kammy, appeared on the ITV show on Thursday - when he told hosts Susanna Reid and Ben Shephard that he had been left feeling “ashamed” after the condition left him unable to speak. Chris opened up on how, last year, he had developed apraxia, a neurological condition that leads to sufferers losing the ability to carry out skilled movement and gestures - including speech - despite having the physical ability and desire to perform them.
The TV star, who appeared on GMB to discuss his new autobiography, Kammy: My Unbelievable Life, and his subsequent documentary, said of his apraxia: “I didn’t know what it was.
I was diagnosed with an underactive thyroid… I thought that was it and it was affecting my voice.” But Kammy went to a thyroid expert, who told him the condition does not normally affect the voice, so he needed another opinion. He went to see a brain specialist, who diagnosed him with apraxia of speech after just two minutes.
The former Brentford and Luton Town player became teary-eyed as he said: “The [words] come out very slow so I thought that defined me.
So, my apologies to everybody who’s got a speech condition because it doesn’t define who you are. “I get upset talking about it because I was in denial, I was ashamed that I couldn’t speak.” In an emotional moment, Susanna took Chris’ hand and told him: “You’ve got nothing to be ashamed of honestly, you’ve done so much to inspire other people.
