- ASHLEIGH RAINBIRD

BOXING legend Chris Eubank weeps in tonight's Scared of the Dark as he discusses losing his son Sebastian.

Sebastian, one of the former boxer's five children, died at the age of 29 in July 2021 after suffering a heart attack while swimming in the sea off Dubai.

Comic Chris McCausland asks Eubank if he had lost his son recently.

The 56-year-old replies solemnly: "It's always going to be recent." He says of Sebastian: "He was everything.

He was me. Poet, philosopher, lover, protector, a man of love.

"Things he did, he was magnificent. My son was, is, an inspiration and will always be an inspiration."

Chris later goes into The Vault, where the show's contestants who include Gogglebox star Scarlett Moffatt and -another former boxer Nicola Adams can speak to producers.
