Just weeks into the joyful chaos of newborn life with his third child, Geordie Shore's Gary 'Gaz' Beadle has left his loyal fanbase deeply concerned. The reality TV personality took to Instagram with a raw and emotional post that starkly contrasted with the typical new-parent bliss.
The now-deleted message was a heartbreaking cry for help, reading: "I give up. I'm done. I'm broken. I'm lost. I'm hurting. I'm tired. I'm sad. I'm angry. I'm confused. I'm overwhelmed. I'm stressed. I'm anxious. I'm depressed. I'm lonely. I'm scared. I'm hopeless. I'm helpless. I'm worthless. I'm nothing."
This public outpouring of anguish has ignited a wave of support and worry from his followers. Many have flooded the comments with messages of love and encouragement, urging the new dad to speak to someone and prioritise his mental wellbeing.
The timing is particularly poignant. Gaz and his wife, Emma McVey, recently celebrated the arrival of their son, Oax, who joins big sister Primrose and big brother Chester. The couple, who have had a famously turbulent relationship, seemed to be in a positive place, making this sudden vulnerable admission all the more shocking to their supporters.
This incident highlights the immense pressure and hidden struggles that can come with parenthood, even amidst the public perception of a perfect life. It serves as a powerful reminder of the importance of mental health awareness, especially for new fathers whose struggles are often overlooked.
