Скачать или смотреть The Hidden Struggles of a Footballer — Gary Neville Tells All

How good are you at talking about your feelings? Be honest — do you bottle it all up or let it out?

In this heartfelt chat, Gary opens up to Fearne about why expressing emotion never came naturally to him — especially growing up in the intense, often unforgiving world of professional football. He shares how the culture in the dressing room shaped the way he dealt with stress, relationships, and personal struggles… or didn’t.

Emma and Gary explore how things are starting to shift in sport, with more support for players behind the scenes, and why that change matters so much. Gary also reveals the moment that pushed him to quietly seek therapy in his mid-20s, and the coping mechanisms he still uses to this day — including one surprising comfort ritual after tough matches.

This is an honest, moving conversation about mental health, masculinity, and what it really takes to show up for the people you love.
