What happens when fame fades, money runs out, and identity slips away?

In 2005, Anthony Hutton became an overnight celebrity after winning Big Brother. aged just 23. Within days, he had agents, photo shoots, and hundreds of thousands of pounds in the bank. But when the cameras switched off, eventually life unravelled into drink, drugs, and even passive thoughts of suicide.

Today, his story looks very different. As a barber, keynote speaker, and founder of the Never Throw In The Towel Project, Anthony is creating spaces where men can talk, connect, and choose life.

In this powerful conversation, Anthony shares the raw truth about:

  • The exhilarating high of instant fame and how and why it nearly destroyed him.
  • The spiral into addiction, financial chaos, and passive suicidal thoughts.
  • The turning point that came not from therapy, but from taking action and starting over.
  • How barbering became Anthony’s lifeline and why the barber’s chair is one of the most powerful spaces for men to talk.
  • Why men often won’t talk unless the setting is ‘in disguise’ and how barbershops, boxing gyms, and forests can provide those essential safe spaces.
  • How his grandmother’s legacy inspired the Never Throw In The Towel Project.
  • What he’s learned about resilience, fate, and the mindset shift that saved him.
  • How retreats, storytelling, and community are helping men in the UK talk, connect, and choose life.

Anthony’s story is one of fame, loss, resilience, and purpose. It’s raw, honest, and full of lessons for anyone who has ever struggled in silence or watched someone they love fall apart. His message is clear: the bad times don’t last, and connection saves lives.
