Fitness star Joe Wicks has shocked fans by drinking his wife’s breast milk . Wicks, 38, and his wife Rosie, 33, were on the way to Taylor Swift’s final show at Wembley Stadium with their daughter on Tuesday night (20 August) when he asked her to “save” him some breast milk to try. As Rosie walked down the street with a jacket covering her chest, the coach asked what she was doing.
His wife responded: “Pumping on the go,” to which he replied: “Save me a bit of milk.” After posting a poll to his Instagram stories asking fans to vote “drink it”, “dash it” or a third option stating “you’re gross”, Wicks decided he would drink the “beautiful breast milk” regardless of the poll’s outcome. “Well I’m going with the vote, but on this one even if the vote said no I still would have drank it.
I ain’t dashing that. Liquid gold, mama’s milk,” Wicks said as he took a swig from the baby’s bottle. “Believe it or not, it tastes really sweet,” he said.
“Like a natural sweet vanilla milk. No wonder babies love sugar and sweet stuff.” He added: “The energy and nutrients in that is unbelievable”.
“So inoffensive honestly this. It’s actually nice,” he continued. “I wouldn’t have it with porridge or cereal, but it’s nice for a little shot now and again.
Thanks Rose – thanks for your milk!” Fans had a mixed reaction, with some calling the decision to drink breast milk “disgusting”. Several people compared Wicks to Homela.
