Date of birth

edit

Hi there, I am a family member of Kelly and her date of birth is currently incorrect - it is 21 December 1990. This can be verified by this archive tweet (https://twitter.com/kellysomers/status/308285737902669824?s=46&t=2xm5OWgmRMTaRf_cH0iwfw), or the following sentence in this Telegraph article (https://www.telegraph.co.uk/football/2022/11/25/kelly-somers-interview-working-england-reporter-can-really-brutal/): "Aged nine, she won a writing competition at the Watford Observer, with her 200-word report on Watford’s 1-1 draw with Leicester during the 1999-2000 season." Would it be possible for someone to assist in making this change please? Themonkeybutler (talk) 22:31, 23 March 2023 (UTC)Reply

I note that it is also cited on her IMDB page here: https://www.imdb.com/name/nm9057063/ Many thanks. Themonkeybutler (talk) 22:33, 23 March 2023 (UTC)Reply
Various sources cite either 1986 and 1990 as her birth year, so it was difficult to know which was the right one, but I'll update the article. This is Paul (talk) 22:50, 23 March 2023 (UTC)Reply
Thank you Paul, really appreciate that. I don't know why 1986 has been perpetuated as it is completely incorrect, but hopefully your change will go someway to stopping that. Themonkeybutler (talk) 23:47, 23 March 2023 (UTC)Reply
