GARDENERS’ World presenter Adam Frost has revealed that he left home at 16 because his parents became swingers.
The 55-year-old BBC host said his parents moved into a village where “they were all swapping couples”;.
The garden designer told the Loose Ends podcast: “I’d been moved from London to Devon, and — someone’s not gonna like me saying this — but my mum and dad decided to do a swap with another couple.
“So they were all swapping couples, so I’ve gone, ‘Nah, it’s not really for me’.”;
Frost, who has won seven gold medals at the RHS Chelsea Flower Show, landed his first gardening job soon after.
He added: “I left home.
“Got a bedsit, and was lucky enough to get a job on a parks department.
“And it was a real old parks department, so we did everything, we grew 200,000 bedding plants, you know.
“Sites of special interest, Victorian parks, you even had to dig a grave.”;
In October Adam revealed he had been diagnosed with fibromyalgia.
He explained he'd experienced ‘throbbing’ pain for two decades before docs were able to diagnose him.
