His comments made Olly burst into laughter, as he accepted the compliment. In jest, Richard clarified: “What I mean is, you must feel blessed sometimes.”

Richard expressed his astonishment during the interview, saying: “It’s not 15?! I thought that was a misprint in our notes.”

Olly agreed on how swiftly time has passed, responding: “It has been an amazing time. I’m super happy, life’s good at the moment.”

Kate praised Olly for his dedication to his career and his boundless energy, commenting: “Tonight we see that actually, that spirit goes right back through the genes.”
