May 16, 2022 - 11:35 BST Nicky Morris Joe Wicks held back tears during his appearance on ITV's This Morning on Monday as he opened up about his traumatic childhood. The fitness coach described his younger years with a heroin-addicted father and a mother who suffered from OCD and eating disorders. After watching a clip from his upcoming documentary programme, Facing My Childhood, which sees the presenter speaking to his dad about his addiction problem, Joe became emotional.
"I found it really difficult doing this documentary because it was, in my head, going to be about other families, mental health in the UK and how we can improve that but it became a really emotional thing. "What I realise is, all those experiences that I've been through have shaped who I am today. It's given me that drive and that empathy to want to help others and even share this story," he added.
