Nottingham-born ex-footballer Jermain Pennant said his diagnosis has been life-changing

Nottingham-born ex-footballer Jermain Pennant has revealed that before his diagnosis with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder he feared for his relationship. The former Stoke, Birmingham and Liverpool player said that he was very difficult to live with.

He said: “It’s huge. It’s life-changing. My partner now, if it wasn’t for me getting diagnosed, we probably would have broken up, because it’s so difficult to live with. I have to take melatonin at night because I can’t sleep. Coming on this show, I’ve already played this show out in my mind twice over.“It’s like trying to manage eight screens. It’s a very busy, active brain.

He left the house empty, but unbeknown to him, he was still paying the interest - only mortgage on it. The abandoned property was later broken into by a drugs gang and used as a cannabis farm.Jermaine has been together with Jess Impiazzi for a year and she revealed she encouraged him to get tested. The actress and ex reality star, 33, claimed the former footballer’s recent diagnosis has ‘changed his whole life’ and that he now listens to her more, instead of being ‘irrational or impulsive’.

Jess continued: "I’ve got a family member that has it and I was noticing things. I was like, 'OK, let’s just go and talk to therapist and the doctor'. Anyway, it changed his life when he got the diagnosis. He was able to focus, he figured out the reasons why he had done things in the past.

A road sign showing Oxford is being divided into ‘districts’ is fake - Full FactAn image of a road sign reading “You are Now Leaving District 5” supposedly seen in Oxford is fake. This is among a number of social media posts we’ve seen spreading false information about new traffic proposals in the city. Fake for now. Well, obviously. It's Oxford, it would be in Roman numerals, or Greek characters or something. It's really petty, but the 'Latest fact checks' panel on your home page isn't a list of your latest fact checks.
