Speaking out in January, the tough nut even vowed ‘never to change’ his outspoken personality.
In an overseas radio interview, Ant said: “I’ve had to curve [sic] my way of thinking and that has really frustrated me.
“That might be due to something that I’ve said that has offended someone.
“You’re always going to offend someone. It’s really hard.”

He told Dubai Eye 103.8 Sport: “I’ve always said to myself that I’ll never change that way of me.
“You have to be really, really careful and constantly think on your feet.”
Ant is understood to have left SAS: Who Dares Wins after a series of high-profile gaffes.
A Channel 4 spokesman said the ex SAS sniper’s views and values are “not aligned” with the channel.

“Following a number of discussions Channel 4 and Minnow Films have had with him in relation to his personal conduct it has become clear that our views and values are not aligned and we will not be working with him again.”
