Adam Thomas on his arthritis journey

Back in August of last year, Adam revealed that he has arthritis.

“It’s has had a huge knock-on effect for me personally, but not only that for my family too!!,” he said on Instagram at the time.

“And I just want to say thank you to @carolinethomas23 and the kids for going on this journey with me, as I know it’s been challenging and frustrating at times but hopefully we’re on the right path now!” he then wrote.

“I don’t know too much about the condition yet as am still learning but, what I have done is learnt a lot about myself and the fact I’d be lost with out this lot!” he then added.
