King of the Jungle Danny Jones struck a chord with the nation with his heartfelt confession about his mental health struggles. But he's not the only band member to experience emotional difficulties.
Danny Jones , McFly singer and guitarist and newly-crowned King of The Jungle, told camp mates of his relentless battle with anxiety, which he's struggled with since the age of 19.
One band member who has long been open about his mental health troubles is lead singer and guitarist, Tom Fletcher — husband of social media influencer and podcaster, Giovanna Fletcher. The McFly star was overcome with emotion as he discussed his mental health with his campmates, admitting he has had therapy since he was 19-years-old
He admitted being afraid to tell anyone of his emotional difficulties. 'For a long time, I still didn't tell anyone about it. I was later diagnosed with bipolar. When I told my friend, Harry, he said:"Ahhh, that makes so much sense." 'Having kids was the best thing that happened to me,' he said in the 2020 interview, as part of a charity campaign with McDonald's.
In 2012, months after the now 37 year-old was crowned King of The Jungle, Poynter appeared on Alan Carr's Chatty Man and admitted to the host that he'd tried to kill himself the previous year, following problems with drug and alcohol addiction. Drummer Harry Judd then added: ‘Half the time you didn’t know what you were doing – it was us telling you.’However recovery wasn't an easy journey for the Essex-born musician. Four years later he developed an addiction to the sedative painkiller Valium, which lasted for two years.
