Ben clearly has a close relationship with Sam and Jack – but just occasionally they are the focus of his 'dad jokes'.

Last month, Ben shared a snap of Jack having his hair cut with a recent episode of Tipping Point playing in the background. "We've finally found Jack's trimming point [laughing face emoji]," he joked in the caption. "This could be my fave dad gag ever! @itvtippingpoint."

In rare comments about his family life in 2020, Ben opened up about his sons. "Jack is much smaller, but he is the emotional one and the one who will explode. Sam is a lot more gentle," he shared.

"Often, if there's anything physical, it will come from Jack. They're good mates and they’re pretty different."

Ben continued: "Having boys is like having dogs. You just need to run them every day. If they're stuck inside every day, the built-up energy is extraordinary. As long as they feel like they've been able to exercise, then I'm very content with how that comes about."
