But Henry‘s jovial dig at Richards’ pronunciation caused Abdo to cover her face in embarrassment on Tuesday night.
During an interview with AC Milan forward Christian Pulisic, Richards had been jokingly teaching the ex-Chelsea man some Italian.
Once the segment ended, Henry was quick to call his colleague out for failing to correctly say the name of AC Milan defender Fikayo Tomori.
The Arsenal icon said to Richards: “You tried to call Tomori ‘Fokori’.”
Abdo immediately burst into laughter as Richards looked on bemused.
When the camera then cut to a close-up of Abdo, she covered her face with a page of notes.
Reacting to the clip, one social media user said: “Kate is killing me in this clip….”
Another added: “Micah Richards is something else .”

Also on Tuesday, Arsenal fans were furious after Henry made a savage remark about his former club.
