Sky Sports pundit and former Liverpool footballer Jamie Redknapp has been banned from driving for 12 months after being caught speeding in his luxury SUV.

Redknapp, 51, admitted two counts of speeding in his Audi Q8 in June and November last year which took his licence over the points limit.

Bexley Magistrates' Court heard the ex-England international was clocked doing 28mph in a 20mph zone in Wandsworth on June 26 last year, and on November 2 he was caught travelling at 58mph in a 50mph zone on the M4 near Reading.

Redknapp did not appear at the court hearing on Monday but had previously notified magistrates of a guilty plea.

This was his second "totting" offence, as he had a previous six-month disqualification in 2021, the court heard.

‌

Before the two speeding counts last year, Redknapp already had 12 points on his licence.

Redknapp, of west London, was also ordered to pay costs of £608.

The football pundit married Frida Redknapp in 2021 with a private ceremony in London just one month before they welcomed their first child, Raphael.

It is Jamie's second marriage after splitting from his long-term partner, Louise Redknapp, after almost 20 years together, with who he also shares two other children, Charley, 18, and Beau, 14.

Redknapp played for Liverpool between 1991 and 2002 and captained the side during its cup treble winning campaign in 2001, despite not being able to play due to injury.

He was capped 17 times for England and scored one international goal.
