Chiles married Jane Garvey, a former regular presenter of Woman's Hour on Radio 4, in September 1998 in Swansea. Chiles and Garvey have two daughters. In June 2008, the couple separated; they divorced in October 2009. [31] Chiles married [32] Guardian editor Kath Viner in 2022. [33] I know all this, but I still worry. There’s something unsettling – as well as reassuring – in the increase in diagnosis and medication. When I type “ADD diagnosis” into Google, the first thing to come up is an ad for a Harley Street place offering “online diagnosis for ADHD today”. And further down the search suggestions are the words: “To be diagnosed with ADHD your child must have six or more symptoms of inattentiveness, or six or more symptoms of hyperactivity and impulsiveness.” Published: 28 Sep 2023 What age should you start Swedish death cleaning? Forty-seven sounds about right Chiles plays the double bass, as revealed when he dueted with violinist Nigel Kennedy playing "Fever" on The One Show. On 7 May 2008, his co-presenter on The One Show, Christine Lampard, sang part of a song with Chiles accompanying on piano.
JR: Well it does exist dear, you’re sat across from one, but I guess you’re saying the fact that you could say to yourself that you weren’t an alcoholic gave you permission to continue drinking to that level? Keogh, Frank (23 November 2007). "Anthem gaffe 'lifted Croatia' ". BBC Sport . Retrieved 2 March 2008. Adrian Chiles bids farewell in final appearance on The One Show, The Daily Telegraph (London), 1 May 2010 Adam Sisman`s definitive biography, published in 2015, revealed much about the elusive spy-turned-novelist; yet le Carré was adamant that some subjects should remain hidden, at least during his lifetime. #TheSecretLifeOfJohnLeCarré is the story of what was left out, and offers reflections on the difficult relationship between biographer and subject. More than that, it adds a necessary coda to the life and work of this complex, driven, restless man.
In August 2018, Chiles presented a BBC Two documentary entitled Drinkers Like Me in which he admitted to regularly drinking in excess of 100 units of alcohol per week [16] and investigated why alcohol had become such a big part of his life. As part of the programme, a doctor carried out a Fibroscan liver test on him, which produced a score of 8.9, indicating mild/moderate fibrosis of the liver and significant hepatic steatosis. The popular broadcaster and columnist sets out to discover the unsung pleasures of drinking in moderation.
He calculated that if he lined up every drink he’d ever had it would stretch over three miles. “A lot of the drinking was just pointless. The real tragedy is if I looked at how many of those were drinks I really wanted, needed or enjoyed I think it’s only about a third of them. So I cut the pointless drinks out. I just thought which drinks do I really need, want and enjoy and try and restrict myself to them.” JR: I don’t think there’s any way, if you’re drinking 100 units a week, you can call that moderate drinking. Published: 19 Oct 2023 Save our school trips! Even if they don’t teach you much, they leave such happy memories Chiles co-presented Christine and Adrian's Friendship Test, a three-part documentary series with Christine Lampard. [14] The series was broadcast on BBC Northern Ireland in November 2017. [15]
He has since created, scripted and fronted a variety of other programmes for the BBC including, for BBC Two, the 2003 series So What Do You Do All Day? – a look at the lives of the rich and famous – and Asian Millionaires. For BBC One he created and fronted Royal Millions, an investigation of the Queen's finances, as well as reports for Panorama and various documentaries. JR: The night I stopped, what followed was really hard, traumatic work. But that first feeling was complete relief. It was like I’d stepped out of the boxing ring. That relief, I never have to think about whether I can drink again, because I’ve decided not to. The book is for people who like drinking. “The point is you can drink less and enjoy it more. If you boil it down to drinks you enjoy, you will enjoy your drinking more; there’s no doubt of that in my mind.” To celebrate the publication of #DisobedientBodies – the new manifesto on beauty from Emma Dabiri, the bestselling author of #WhatWhitePeopleCanDoNext – we’re running a giveaway with UK indie nail polish brand Télle Moi. TheBookOfPhobiaaAndManias traces the rich and thought-provoking history in which our fixations have taken shape.Honest, funny and full of strategies on how to moderate your drinking, Chiles is genuinely passionate about his pints and the need to enjoy them without ever coming across as preachy - a fine line many have failed to tread ... sage ... funny and touching'
