Alongside several video clips of himself working out, Scott wrote: ‘Special moment for me today! Celebrating 6 months no alcohol and finally reaching my goal of the best shape of my life.
‘Before I go on I just want to say massive thank you to my PT for getting me to this point. This may come as a surprise to a lot of you as it’s not something I’ve often talked about.
‘For years I’ve always battled with my relationship to alcohol. I made a living out of being a party boy and although I didn’t drink often when I did I would always take it too far and become a different person.

‘I’ve battled with this for years and although I’ve not had a bad life at all and always done ‘well’ so to speak there was always an underlying feeling of not reaching my potential.
‘I saw a therapist for years over this called Gareth who was a massive help in giving me perspective and I still check in with him once a month even now.’
The television personality said he made a decision at the end of last year to be completely sober for 2020 because his drunk behaviour started to ‘jeopardise’ his business.
‘To see something that I’ve worked hard for jeopardised because of my behaviour was a massive eye opener for me,’ Scott wrote.
