Sir Bradley Wiggins has opened up on a horrifying three-year period of being abused by a coach, and has said he suffered “borderline rape and sexual abuse” beginning at the age of twelve.
Speaking on Fearne Cotton’s Happy Place podcast, Wiggins admitted that the face of the male coach - who he did not name - still haunts him now many years later.
The former Tour de France and Olympic gold medal winning cyclist said that he now “hates cycling” and added that he only dedicated his life to it to distract him from the other issues he was experiencing.
