Craig Revel Horwood has opened up about his tough upbringing in Australia and how bullying affected him.

Craig Revel Horwood admits that he was 'completely homophobic' and shut down his sexuality after being bullied.

He told the Guardian G2: “But when I went to the theatre, when I did my first dance class, the people there were lovely, and people started praising me. They were older and accepting, and I loved it... I liked those people, and I knew I didn’t like people at school. I was traumatised at school, but dance released that."

“We knew after the seventh beer what was going to happen. We knew to go to our rooms, or go and do something else, go out on my bike. I wouldn’t hang around for it. It was worse for my mum – she couldn’t really do anything about it.The TV personality also reflected on how difficult it was to be gay in the 1980s with the HIV Aids epidemic and misinformation surrounding the disease. Craig said: "Everyone was ill-informed, they called it the gay plague.
