Joe Wicks, the loveable fitness guru with really great hair, famed for cajoling us into working out during the pandemic, has taught us many valuable lessons. He's empowered us to star-jump our troubles away, cook nutritious meals at home and focus on improving our sleep. It’s all been very sound advice. But his latest trick is slightly more left field. He’s admitted to drinking… erm… his wife’s breast milk.
In a video that’s swiftly gone viral, Wicks asks his wife, Rosie, to save him some of the breast milk she’s expressing on their way to a Taylor Swift gig. The next clip sees Wicks gladly knocking back a cup of the stuff and beaming with glee. His review? “Like natural vanilla milk. The energy and nutrients in that is unbelievable!” he tells the camera. “I wouldn’t have it on me porridge or cereal, but it’s nice for a little shot now and again.”
Wicks wouldn’t be the first celebrity to shout about the supposed health benefits of breast milk. Pussycat Doll Ashley Roberts admitted on Good Morning Britain that she tried her friends’ breast milk when she heard there were “a lot of nutrients in it”. She compared it to “sweet almond milk”.
