I did and didn’t understand the dream, but I knew I had to quit sugar.‘I went to tell Taya [his ­partner] and she thought I wouldn’t do it.

I’m four weeks in now, and I’ve lost six kilos, which is pretty good.’Although Kaleb admitted he still has ‘the odd cheat day’, even then he makes sure to only consume ‘sugars that naturally occur’.Kaleb’s new health drive came as Jeremy also revealed he was one a diet of his own after a recent health scare.
