Tyler West on Strictly, hair transplants and spending two years in his bedroom at 14
Description
At 14, Tyler West shut himself away. His parents broke up, there was a murder outside his home, and he spent two years barely leaving his bedroom.
In this conversation with Dr Hilary, Tyler talks about the turning points that followed: playing handball for Great Britain, a chance break on TV, and reaching the Strictly Come Dancing semi-finals. He explains why therapy mattered, what body image has meant to him, and why he chose to be open about his hair transplant.He also recalls running a marathon in the middle of Strictly rehearsals — a decision that took a heavy toll on his body.
