Shocked Emma Paton forced to apologise live on Sky Sports after awkward blunder… but glam host barely flinches
SKY SPORTS NEWS presenter Emma Paton showed her cool as things came crashing down around her live on air.
Paton was reporting on Crystal Palace‘s capture of Daniel Munoz from Genk on a three-year deal when something fell over in the studio and caused an almighty din.
The loud crashing could not interrupt the presenter however, who briefly said “Sorry about that” before continuing to give viewers the latest on the deal.
Fellow Sky Sports presenter Olivia Buzaglo later appeared to own up to knocking the item in the studio over on X.
She quoted the Sky Sports video and wrote: “26 seconds in in the words of @MissEmmaPaton sorry about that.”
Fellow fans in the comments commented on how they found the awkward moment hilarious when watching live.
One said: “Didn’t even flinch ”
Another wrote: “Heard this while watching it live ”
A third said “Oops! Careful”, alongside a laughing emoji.
Paton cemented her status as a fan favourite while presenting the World Darts Championship over the festive period.
Presenting alongside Wayne Mardle, audiences were able to take in Luke Littler‘s remarkable rise with the duo on their screens.
She is a long-term Sky Sports News correspondent, but recently became the face of darts on Sky.
She has also presented on tennis and even WWE in the past on the channel.
