Paul has recently shared a surprising experience that occurred as a result of his weight loss journey. The renowned chaser on the popular show The Chase, Paul Sinha, has been open about his health struggles ever since he was diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes in 2017 and Parkinson's in 2019.
As part of his journey to improve his health, Paul took part in the ITV documentary Diabetes: The Fast Fix where he significantly reduced his calorie intake to only 800 a day. This led to a remarkable weight loss of two stone and put his diabetes into remission. However, this also had an unexpected consequence - it cost ITV a lot of money.
In his book Once Sinha Lifetime: Comedy, Disaster and One Man's Quest for Happiness, Paul shared how his weight loss led to the show having to replace several of his suits. But more importantly, his diabetes was in remission.
It was in 2017 when Paul was diagnosed with diabetes and two years later, he revealed that he also suffers from Parkinson's. This disease causes involuntary shaking, stiff muscles, and slower movements, which could be challenging for a quick-thinker like the Sinnerman. But Paul is determined to fight this illness with all his strength.
Despite his health struggles, Paul has continued to be a prominent figure on The Chase and has no plans of stepping down anytime soon. In fact, he sees the show as a way to measure the progression of his Parkinson's as his results have not deteriorated since his diagnosis. He stated in an interview with The Daily Star that if he feels his ability is declining, he will step down, but for now, he is still as sharp as ever.
In the midst of his health battles, Paul married his partner Oliver Levy in December 2019. During an appearance on Loose Women, he shared how he was accidentally outed to his mother by a friend at a house party. He joked that he still doesn't know which of his friends did it and even teased a poll to guess the culprit.
While Paul has been through a lot, he continues to have a positive outlook on life and a great sense of humor. He even joked about Rishi Sunak's team placing a side bet on his friend's identity. If you have a story to share, Paul encourages you to reach out to The Agency entertainment team. They can be contacted through email, phone, or their Submit Stuff page.
Not only is Paul an incredible chaser on The Chase, but he is also an inspiration for his determination to overcome his health challenges and his ability to see the humor in difficult situations. We wish him all the best on his journey and can't wait to see him continue to excel on the show.
