Former soldier and SAS: Who Dares Wins star Ant Middleton is facing legal action from the Ministry of Defence for allegedly breaching a confidentiality agreement by discussing his time in the Special Forces on social media.
The MoD has filed papers at the High Court in a case listed as Ministry of Defence vs Middleton, under 'Contract - Part 7 Claim - Breach of Contract'. A source told The Sun that the action is focused on a series of social media posts about the Special Forces, not his TV appearances, books, or work as an honorary cadet Captain.
Middleton responded on X with a furious rant, writing: 'An organisation so secretive that can't keep a secret! I smell cow s***. It's been compromised for a while now. Sad but true! I'll sort this s*** out soon enough!'
The MoD introduced a confidentiality agreement in 1996 after former soldiers Andy McNab and Chris Ryan published books detailing a mission in Iraq. The agreement requires permission from senior officers before publishing accounts of undercover missions.
Middleton has also been politically active on social media, expressing his intention to become the next mayor of London and advocating for Christian culture to be 'predominant and celebrated' in Britain.
