Roman then explained on the You About podcast with Tom Grennan that his dad had had an accident with a chainsaw.
The star said it was lucky that his dad wasn’t “fingerless” after the incident, which saw Martin pick the chainsaw up by the blade, to cut down a piece of wood.
The chat began with music star Tom saying to Roman: “What the hell has happened to your dad’s fingers?”

“Oh God,” Roman said, adding: “It’s scary. Friday night I’d just finished work and looked at my phone, and dad sent a picture of his hand with all fingers heavily strapped up.
“And all he writes underneath in the family WhatsApp group is ‘yep… chainsaw.’”
Roman continued: “I was texting him saying ‘what?!’ but got no reply, and then Harley my sister is like ‘what’s happened?’ but again, no reply.
“So he said ‘Oh there was a bit of the branch that we wanted chopping down so I went and got a chainsaw.”
Roman said his first issue with what had happened was that his dad was handling a chainsaw in the first place.
“He’s 65. He’s got more than enough dough. Get a professional in, you can’t be doing that,” Roman said.
Adding: “My dad said ‘Oh yeah I picked it up by the blade.”
Tom then joked that Roman’s mum wouldn’t be very happy if his dad lost his fingers, leaving Roman visibly shocked.
Roman then quipped: “Yeah because he wouldn’t be able to play guitar, exactly.”
