He may have retired from cricket seven years ago, but fitness is still high on Freddie Flintoff’s agenda – even when it comes to the bedroom!
The star has revealed that he wears a fitness tracker while having sex – to ‘make him try a bit harder’!
The hilarious revelation was made in Channel 4’s new show, Married to A Celebrity: The Survival Guide, set to air this week.
Freddie and his wife of 12 years, Rachael, feature in an episode – and things get a little awkward as they discuss the things that grate on one another.
For Rachael – who has kids Corey, Holly and Rocky with the cricket star – it comes down to Freddie’s bedroom etiquette!
“Robbie Savage bought him a Fitbit for Christmas, but there’s certain intimate moments in the bedroom when you should take your Fitbit off,” she said.
“Things are happening, and then your husband’s wrist is flashing telling him his heartbeat and how hard he’s working – it’s really wrong!”
Indeed, copping sight of Freddie’s accessory sometimes makes Rachael feel as though he sees sex as just ‘another training session’!
Freddie is known for his great sense of humour, and he wasn’t about to take Rachael’s critique lying down.
Responding to her complaint, the 39-year-old said: “But if I try a bit harder, I can get to 4,000 calories. That’s what I’ve set as my goal for the day.
“So, if I’m at 3,800, and it’s……Oh, I’ve never thought about it like that!”
It sounds like the penny has finally dropped with the father-of-three!
With a preview like that, we will definitely be tuning into the show!
Well, mums, tell us how you feel – would you be annoyed if your other half wore a Fitbit to bed?
