As a dedicated follower of the world of sports and entertainment, I find Jennifer Stoute, also known as Rebel, to be a true inspiration. Her journey from an international athlete to a Gladiator and now a successful businesswoman is nothing short of remarkable.


Since her debut on the iconic TV series between 1996 and 1999, Rebel Wilson, known for her role as Gladiatrix Hilaria in Gladiator, has amassed a substantial wealth.

Jennifer Stoute, aged 59, was a long-time sprinter for the British team in international track and field events.

1990 saw her winning a gold medal in the 4x400m relay at the Commonwealth Games, while she clinched a bronze medal in the same event during the 1992 Barcelona Olympics.

Following a debilitating hamstring injury in 1993, Jennifer went on to establish herself by the name of “Rebel” when she became a member of the Gladiators three years afterwards.

Rebel excelled in all events, especially Powerball, Pendulum and The Wall, in which she was only beaten once. 

Following his departure from the show in 1999, the social media sensation made an appearance in the hit film Gladiator directed by Ridley Scott.

Currently, Jennifer heads up a thriving sports management firm named Astra Partners, estimated to be valued at approximately £3.8 million.

In addition to managing her own business, Jennifer is known for her appearances in advertisements for brands like Garnier and Look Fantastic, and she also serves as an ambassador for the skincare brand Pro-Ven Probiotics.

The sportsperson co-owns the business with her ex husband and world champion John Regis MBE, 58.

Jennifer and John share two successful children, whom have also gone into the world of athletics.

Renee Regis, a 19-year-old athlete from Britain, has taken part in several track and field competitions.

22-year-old Alicia Jazmin Regis has also embarked a career in health and fitness. 

Jennifer is now in a happy relationship with Ian Laughton, who has a construction company.

The athlete returned for Sky One’s short-lived revival of Gladiators, which ran from 2008 to 2009. 

In an interview with The Mirror, the ex-athlete expressed that participating in the show was one of her most rewarding choices, explaining that it significantly altered the course of her life.

On their flight home from Mauritius, Jennifer was deeply saddened when her friend Ulrika Jonsson, the show’s host, informed her that Gladiators was coming to an end.

Jennifer shared with the press, “‘Ulrika asked if I was aware that we didn’t have a job,’ to which I replied, ‘What exactly do you mean?’

She stated, “My representative informed me that Gladiators has concluded.” This left me bewildered since it wrapped up abruptly without any prior notice. We hadn’t received a hint such as “we won’t be producing another season” or the like.

‘[So I found out] on a plane back from holiday. I think it might have been the beginning of 2000 or the end of 1999 but it was after we did our last show. And Ulrika [just said on holiday] “oh just to let you know we’re unemployed.”‘

Jennifer is godmother to Ulrika’s 16-year-old son Malcolm. 

Following the disclosure, it’s been found that Gladiators actress Falcon had bequeathed a substantial amount upon her death at the age of 59 in March 2023.

As a devoted admirer, I sadly announce that the radiant star, known by her birth name Bernadette Hunt, has departed from us following a prolonged struggle with cancer.

Starting from the second season in 1993, the star became a significant element of the renowned show, staying with it till its conclusion.

It has been unveiled by The Sun that she bequeathed approximately 300,000 pounds to her family, as stated in her will.

After accounting for debts and expenses, the remaining value of Bernadette’s estate was lowered from an initial £444,000 to £293,000.
