Fitness star Joe Wicks, who received an MBE for his efforts during the first Covid-19 lockdown, has revealed via social media that he is currently staying in Suffolk.
Posting on Instagram, the 35-year-old trainer, also known as The Body Coach, said he is spending a few nights at the Wilderness Reserve in Sibton, near Saxmundham.
Wicks was honoured in the Queen’s birthday honours list, having raised £580,000 for the NHS by hosting online workouts throughout the coronavirus pandemic.
He started his online PE lessons on his YouTube channel for children in March after schools across the UK were closed. The weekly PE lessons came to an end on July 22.

Later, he posted: “This place is incredible. Wait until you see inside @wildernessreserve”
