IAN Wright described yesterday as the 'most nerve racking moment' of his life when he received his MBE from the Queen.
The 36-year-old made the trip to Buckingham Palace with his wife Debra and mum Nesta, who cried as her son picked up the honour.
The Burnley striker and TV presenter said: "Meeting the Queen was a superb experience. I love the Queen and the Royal Family. It was the most nerve racking thing I've ever had to do."
