On the surface he is one of the best-looking and enviable men on reality TV.

Speaking out: Talking to Piers Morgan and Susannah Reid in honour of World Mental Health Day, the MIC star was frank about his condition

Talking to Piers Morgan and Susannah Reid in honour of World Mental Health Day, he said: 'I went to a school doctor to talk about it but after I was diagnosed, it was like 'Be on your way',' he said. 'There wasn't any support.'

He then added: 'I remember looking at a piece of paper the doctor gave me and I ticked every symptom off it was that bad. But it was refreshing to see that list and know I was actually suffering with something.

'Although to be enduring all of those things at such a young age was scary.'

JP is one of of many famous faces who's trying to raise the public profile of mental health awareness. And he's clearly aware of the influence he has.

Lack of support: JP says he was let down by a lack on intervention during his school years

Sympathetic: Piers and Susannah seemed quite moved by his frank admission

'When someone like myself speaks out, people are so shocked,' he added. 'They look on social media and see the kind of lifestyle you have, and they just can't believe you may have had issues behind closed doors.

'I still suffer from anxiety but speaking about it helps as does playing sport - that really helps my sanity.'

Earlier, Prince William, Prince Harry and Kate Middleton all attended an event to mark the occasion at the London Eye.
