Husband Completes London Marathon Despite Doctors’ Orders, Suffers Brutal After-Effects

BBG News

On Sunday, Georgia Toffolo’s spouse, James Watt, successfully finished the emotional London Marathon despite going against medical advice for participating in a charitable run. However, he confessed that he sustained a severe injury during the competition.

42-year-old millionaire from BrewDog persevered through agonizing pain caused by a broken bone and torn ligament, pushing through to reach the finish line. He then shared a photo of his golden participation medal on Instagram.

The star of Made In Chelsea, aged 30, watched approvingly from the sideline, and was spotted handing over water bottles to her businessman spouse and exchanging a loving kiss with him.

During the marathon, James ran to support Pancreatic Cancer UK since his father, Jim, succumbed to the disease the previous year. At a certain moment, one of the co-founders of the beverage firm displayed that he had written ‘DAD’ on his hand with black marker for encouragement.

During that recent event, I proudly wore a tee with the heartfelt message “FOR DAD [love heart] LONDON 2025” on its back, honoring my cherished father.

In a disturbing recording, the businessman disclosed that his nipples began to bleed during the competition, an issue he didn’t realize until 20 minutes afterwards, when Georgia drew his attention to it.

Georgia responded, “There weren’t many humorous occurrences today.”

Georgia said, “Not much was amusing about today.”

Georgia commented, “Today wasn’t very funny.

He continued, saying, ‘We managed to accomplish it.’ I’m not entirely certain of the method, but we got it done… Around the seventh mile, my nipples began to bleed without me realizing it until I had completed the task.

I hadn’t realized it until Georgia mentioned it later, and now I’m a bit apprehensive about removing this t-shirt and these shoes.

‘But we did it. We got there.’ 

Later, he reshared a picture previously posted that depicted him holding his medal, emphasizing this time the bloodstains on his shirt from his injured nipples.

James titled it: “I was laughing so hard, I didn’t notice [laughing-tearfully emojis]! It wasn’t until 20 minutes later, when @georgiatoffolo mentioned it, that I realized what was there.

‘Other things were hurting more [crying with laughter emoji].’

Later on, he commented: “Kudos to all who participated today! It was particularly moving to see so many come together for such significant reasons and causes.

I want to express my admiration for everyone who participated in the run. It was demanding, both physically and emotionally, but you all showed incredible resilience. A special round of applause goes out to those who were running not just for personal achievement, but for a noble cause – charity.

Before the race, Georgia confessed that her husband was “absolutely crazy” for participating in the marathon, as he went against medical advice due to his painful injury.

Georgia disclosed that they had transformed their home into a high-end athletic recovery center, with the intention of helping James recover and prepare for the upcoming marathon.

However, even with his injury, it was declared that James will be at the starting point and will run the challenging 26.2-mile race.

In her post on Instagram, she shared: “Despite being utterly crazy, he’s determined to try. Remarkably, after an entire month unable to run, he’s making his way towards the starting line of the London Marathon.

As a lifestyle advisor, I might say, “Perhaps there’s a unique charm about you that drew me to you in the first place – your unconventional mindset. I wish you nothing but the best, my dear. May you find success in all your endeavors. We’ll be rooting for you every step of the way.

On Saturday, she shared: “We have some significant news… What you’re seeing isn’t a pregnancy scan, but something far more serious, I’m afraid. Just a little joke to lighten the mood!

Unfortunately, it has been determined that @brewdogjames will not be able to participate in the marathon due to bone damage and torn ligaments. (Accompanied by a wink and a nod to the dramatic music.)

‘But would that stop the most competitive man I know? Absolutely not.

He’s essentially transformed our home into a high-end athletic recovery facility. He’s experimented with the hyperbaric chamber, undergone numerous scans, received multiple foot injections, indulged in regular sauna sessions, and now seems to be constantly using a pair of compression boots.

‘And as for me? Wife duties have officially begun.

It’s well-known that I have a fondness for biohacking, so I’ve opted for a more organic approach… I spend time grounding myself in our backyard, using ice packs on rotation, attending yoga classes (it took an injury to convince James to join me, but he did), having snacks delivered at regular intervals, and yes, even serenading him while inside the hyperbaric chamber.

As a devoted enthusiast, I’ve put virtually every strategy to the test, from the common to the esoteric. However, with the marathon looming just under 24 hours away, I find myself short on time and struggling for fresh ideas.

As a die-hard enthusiast, I’m reaching out for any unconventional remedies that might just work in the nick of time. We’re at our wit’s end and are more than open to giving anything a shot!

In August, James’s father, Jim, passed away following his diagnosis with advanced pancreatic cancer only a few weeks earlier.

The wealthy Scotsman expressed that the news came crashing down on his family, for his robust lobster-fishing father had always been in good health throughout his life.

On Instagram, James shared a heart-wrenching update, revealing that he and Georgia had spent the previous ten days by his father’s hospital bedside.

He shared with his social media audience: “Just three weeks back, he was diligently working on his lobster fishing vessel, pulling out 300 traps each day.

It’s hard for me to fully comprehend how someone who was extremely robust, active, and healthy could suddenly be confronted with such a demanding health predicament within a brief period.

As a devoted son, I’ve always shared an exceptionally strong bond with my father. Starting from when I was just six years old, I’d spend every school vacation nestled on his fishing boat. Since my entry into this world, we’ve been inseparable.

In October, the proposal took place between Georgia and James, who was a millionaire. He presented her with a stunning three-diamond encrusted ring set worth approximately £200,000, during their romantic vacation in Greece to celebrate Georgia’s 30th birthday.

It seems that, as earlier stated by the BrewDog founder, the couple indeed followed through with their plans to marry this year. However, attendees received just a 48-hour heads up for the event.

James wrote on his Instagram: ‘Georgia and I got married today.

On March 1st, 2025, the event will take place at Gardenstown, Northeast Scotland, specifically at coordinates 57.6722° N, 2.3372° W. The temperature is expected to be around 6 degrees Celsius, with winds blowing at approximately 17 knots (Scotland’s weather is always unpredictable). A Spaniel will serve as the ring bearer.

Visitors who can make it within 24 hours, prepare for a quick Scottish honeymoon! We’ll be tying the knot in the very same church where my grandparents exchanged their vows.

Previously, the beverage mogul has disclosed details of his tense connection with his mom. He revealed that she, in essence, became a sort of inner voice during his childhood, which eventually led to them cutting off communication for about two decades.

He shared with Steven Bartlett from The Diary Of A CEO a story about how she dashed his dream of becoming a marine biologist when he was only nine, even though sharks were his favorite creatures.

James shared that his favorite pastime is exploring the depths alongside sharks, as he finds the greatest joy when submerged among these marine creatures.

However, one evening, his mother made him sit down and showed him some authors from one of his favorite shark books. She emphasized that each author held a PhD.

I mentioned: ‘I scrutinized the four marine biologists cited in the shark book. I stated to myself, “Pursuing marine biology might not be feasible for me, so I need to reconsider sharing that aspiration with others.”‘
