Three-times Olympic gold medallist Adam Peaty has bravely opened up about his battle with depression and alcohol, and living with “a devil on his shoulder”.
The 28-year-old confessed his mental health and drinking worsened last year as he struggled with motivation and injury, and a split from artist Eiri Munro, mum of his son George, two.
Britain’s most successful swimmer of all time, Adam has won five Olympic medals including three golds, 16 European Championships, eight Worlds and four Commonwealth Games. He has broken 14 world records.
