As an ardent admirer of Matt Lucas, I can’t help but be moved by his transformative journey. His story is a testament to the power of personal motivation and the importance of family history in shaping our lives. It’s heartwarming to see how he’s taken the wake-up call from his father’s passing and turned it into a positive change.


At the premiere of Gladiator 2 on Wednesday, Matt Lucas made quite an impression in a sleek navy-blue suit, highlighting his remarkable weight loss journey.

The comedian and actor, now 50 years old, who has just slimmed down from a size XXXL to a medium, showed off his refined style while wearing a well-fitted two-piece suit as he made a stylish appearance.

He put on a suit over a neat, white dress shirt and a playful navy tie featuring an array of colorful squares as its pattern.

The star added the final touch to his outfit with a pair of sleek, polished black loafers and spectacles without frames, as he proudly displayed his slender physique.

In the year 2022, I found myself compelled to alter my dietary choices and prioritize my weight management, all thanks to a troubling medical history within my family.

At the tender age of 22, Matt suddenly lost his father who was 52, an event that served as a powerful reminder and catalyst for change as he grew older.

On Gabby Logan’s sports podcast, he shared: “At present, I am 48 years old. My father passed away at 52, quite unexpectedly. His father, to my knowledge, died around 56. So, considering the average lifespan, I was contemplating the statistical trend here.

‘I was very big and I was getting bigger in the pandemic actually. 

As a lifestyle enthusiast, I find myself lately adhering to a rather sedentary routine – hardly venturing outside, limiting social interactions, and indulging quite excessively in the delightful comfort of roasted potatoes. I must confess, the number of times these golden, crispy delights have graced my plate is beyond count!

He said this realisation caused him to lose weight, but the comic said he felt like he needed to do more exercise and become fitter nonetheless.

He added: ‘I was so big I couldn’t really fit on screen anymore. The thing is if you’re big, and by the way I’ve still got a proper tummy, I’m not skinny, by any means, I’ve just lost some weight…

Initially, I ranged anywhere between XXL to XXXL, but currently, I find myself fitting into a medium size. However, the medium can be either too large or too small for me at times.

What I really need to focus on is improving my physical fitness. Recently, I’ve gained a few pounds, so my upcoming goal is to increase my physical activity levels.

‘I might have to make a game of it when I go out and exercise to stay out of people’s way. I don’t have a garden so I have to find a way to do that.’ 

In April 2020, Matt confessed that he wanted to improve his physical fitness while in lockdown, as he felt he had gained a few pounds.

He mentioned that he needs to focus on becoming more physically fit as he has gained some extra pounds recently. His upcoming goal is to incorporate more physical activity into his routine.

When I venture out for my workout, I may need to turn it into a fun game to keep my distance from others. Since I don’t have a garden, I’ll have to come up with an alternative solution.

Previously, the comedian had been advised by doctors to lower his daily caloric consumption to about 1,500 due to concerns that he might contract diabetes.
