Jamie Theakston Girlfriends

After publicly describing girlfriend Joely Richardson as the love of his life, Jamie  learned on 13 March 2019 that the actress had dumped him.

Jamie Theakston Diet | Jamie Theakston Fat

Jamie unveiled his new look after cutting his body fat. He embarked on a exhausting six months fitness regime and it’s certainly paid off. He completely changed his look after being challenged by Men’s Fitness magazine. However, he admits he is now in better shape than ever before.

Jamie told the magazine: “I didn’t know the difference between protein and carbohydrate and had never taken much notice.
“I’d be in the studio at 5am, then I’d have a breakfast at 6.30am and maybe another one at 8.30am, and it was sausage and bacon sandwiches, tonnes of coffee. Looking back it’s kind of shocking.”
However, thanks to his new exercise and healthy eating regime, he says he feels better than ever.

Jamie added: “You can see it in the little things, like running upstairs: a year ago, I was carrying an extra three stone. “I feel brighter, my complexion’s better, all of those things.”
