Paddy McGuinness has joked he can "no longer see [his] penis" after putting on weight during the coronavirus lockdown.
The 46-year-old television presenter has been self-isolating at home amid the ongoing pandemic, and has said that whilst he often watches prison movies which show inmates getting into "peak physical condition" whilst isolated from the world, he’s had a very different experience in real life.
Posting a side-by-side image of himself next to a picture of Nikolaj Coster-Waldau from his role in ‘Shot Caller’, he wrote: "In every Prison movie I’ve watched people tend to come out of isolation looking in peak physical condition? I’ve only been on lockdown for 18 days and I can no longer see my penis! #bangediton #stayhome #staysafe #washyourhands (sic)"
The ‘Take Me Out’ host also posted an image on his Instagram account showing off his stomach, where he wrote: "Isolation gains. #stayhome #staysafe #washyourhands (sic)"
And it seems Paddy isn’t alone in his isolation weight gain, as musician Rick Astley commented to let the ‘Catchpoint’ star know he’s in the same boat.
He wrote on Instagram: "I can beat that but I’m not releasing the evidence!"
The news comes after Paddy unveiled his fitness overhaul last year, when he took to social media to display his two stone weight loss.
Posting at the time, he wrote: "Totally forgot to post this last year! This is a before and after pic from the 4 months of good diet and training I did.
"I really enjoyed it and definitely could have got leaner but I began to feel a bit too thin. I started at 92.7kg and finished at 78.7kg. (sic)"
The cheeky television personality admitted at the time that he didn’t want to put the work in to lose the weight again as he insisted he was feeling "strong and good".
