Pointless star Richard Osman has revealed he's dealt with four-decade battle with addiction, triggered by the childhood trauma of his father walking out on his family
Richard Osman has revealed how his childhood trauma led to a four-decade battle with addiction. The TV presenter and best-selling author opened up about struggling with a food addiction, triggered by his dad leaving the family home when he was nine years old.
“We’ve all got human minds and we’re all crazy in slightly different ways." “That’s my version of it since I was probably nine years old. It’s been absolutely ever-present in my life — weight, food, where I am in relation to it, where I am in relation to happiness because of it, hiding it." “All of that stuff, it’s been absolutely like the drum beat of my life.”
Richard’s father later came back into his life, after Richard became a dad himself. The Thursday Murder Club book series writer shared: "By and large, addiction is running away from your pain. I was in a lot of pain, clearly, but do you know what, I was nine, ten . . . ‘I don’t want to be in pain particularly, I don’t want to miss my dad, I want to go, this is OK, everything’s fine’.
