S3E4 - Rugby Star Danny Cipriani shares his battles with depression, suicidal thoughts and the tragic loss of close friend Caroline Flack.

In this latest episode of Under The Surface, host Smithy and co-host Leon McKenzie are joined by Danny Cipriani, the English rugby union player who bravely discusses his lifelong struggles with acceptance and mental health.

Danny opens up about the difficulties surrounding his upbringing and troublesome teenage years where he felt like an outsider in the rugby world. He shares his battles with depression, suicidal thoughts and the tragic loss of close friend Caroline Flack.

Despite his talents on the pitch, Danny faced constant scrutiny from the media and public, which took a major toll on his mental health. However, through therapy and self-work, he has found greater acceptance and inner peace.

Danny hopes that by sharing his deeply personal story, he can help end the stigma around men's mental health and inspire others who may be silently suffering to reach out for support.
