gorge on industrial quantities of meat –
carnivores with not a V sign to be seen.
“A lot of my recipes are vegan and
vegetarian friendly. Balance is key and the
meat I cook I serve with vegetables and all
locally sourced.”
A formidably fit and committed
sportsman, Haskell now has a wide range of
interests to keep him busy since hanging up
his rugby boots last year. As well as books,
blogs and videos on health, fitness and
nutrition, he has his own clothing range
and likes to DJ in his limited spare time.
On top of all that he is training for his first
professional Mixed Martial Arts (MMA) fight.
The bushfires that have ravaged
Australia meant that in the celebrity jungle
no live fires were allowed and on Australia
Day Haskell took part in a music event at
the Omeara in London Bridge to raise
funds for Red Cross Australia.
Haskell has a huge and healthy appetite
for life as well as food and if you watched
‘I’m a Celebrity..’ you’ll know that if you are
ever a guest at a Haskell barbecue and he
asks what you’d like to eat and drink – just
be decisive.
