As I delve into the fascinating journey of Adam Rickitt, it’s hard not to be captivated by his transformative odyssey from Coronation Street heartthrob to political aspirant, and now back to music and acting. His life is a testament to resilience and adaptability, a tale that mirrors the ebb and flow of the entertainment industry itself.


On Mondays, Adam Rickitt elicited delightful reactions from his followers when he posted some captivating photos without clothes on Instagram.

In a nod to his classic 1999 music video “I Breathe Again,” the Coronation Street actor, aged 46, seemed to be reenacting the scene, causing some surprise back then due to its nudity portrayal.

Twenty-five years on, Adam demonstrated that his charm was timeless when he flaunted his muscular physique and sun-kissed complexion. This spectacle brought great joy to his 72,000 fans.

In a single somber and brooding photograph, the actor, famously known for portraying Nick Tilsley on ITV’s soap opera, stared intently through a window, perched casually on a staircase, clad only in his natural state.

In the second provocative photo, Adam displayed his well-defined abdominal muscles as he struck a pose on a balcony, mindfully crossing his legs to maintain his privacy.

Captioning his post, Adam penned: ‘That time…I apologise… #NationalButtShotDay

As a lifestyle enthusiast, I must share an amusing predicament I recently encountered: “Though I can’t display the results due to clogging issues – quite impolite! Now at 46, I’ve managed to pickle myself from within and achieve that perfect tan on the outside. Mission accomplished!” #Jobdone

Enthusiasts didn’t hesitate to express their joy over the photos, many of them pointing out that he was reenacting his iconic music video scene.

They shared: ‘Are you recreating I Breathe Again 24?’; ‘Look amazing show it off’

‘Crikey! New song “I lost my breath again.’

‘I think we’re going to need a remake of I breath again.’

‘Be still my beating heart – this brings back memories. Jeez, 25 years!!!!’

‘Yay I’ve been waiting all holiday to see the tanlines’; ‘OMFG you’ve still got it.’

Adam achieved recognition when he was chosen to portray Gail Platt’s (Helen Worth) onscreen son on Coronation Street back in 1997, a role he held for a span of two years.

In 2002, he made a short comeback, and then he stayed for a more extended period from 2003 to 2004. During this time, his character shared the show’s first gay kiss with Todd Grimshaw, played by Bruno Langley.

During his soap break, he decided to launch a music career, releasing album – Good Times. 

In the United Kingdom, his debut single, titled “I Breathe Again,” peaked at the fifth spot on the charts, and it was this song that led to the creation of the memorable 1999 music video where he was seen naked inside a glass enclosure, under examination by medical professionals.

However, the album only managed to peak at number 41, with Adam promptly dropped from his label. 

2005 marked my leap into the world of politics, as I found myself endorsed as a potential Parliamentary candidate for the Conservative Party, a role that ignited an even greater passion within me.

Despite not compiling a shortlist of 20 potential candidates for the Folkestone and Hythe constituency vacancy left by Michael Howard, he chose to bring an end to his political journey instead.

After a hiatus of three years, he went back to his acting career, appearing on the New Zealand soap opera “Shortland Street” until 2010.

2014 saw his return to music as he joined forces with the supergroup 5th Story. This group competed in the second season of The Big Reunion, sharing the stage with Kenzie from Blazin’ Squad, Dane Bowers from Another Level, Kavana and Gareth Gates.

Earlier this month, Adam shocked and divided as he showed off a bold new look. 

On Sunday, the actor shared on Instagram that he had replaced his well-known curtains with long, bleached blonde hair, attributing this transformation to his wife who motivated him to take the plunge.

Accompanying a photo of him vacationing in Sicily, he posted: Day 1…Either 90% wine or mojito…a bit silly looking hair (apologies), but @katyrickitt seems to adore it!

However, not every follower was fully on board, as some admired his appearance while others drew comparisons between him and actor Jean-Claude Van Damme and singer Bonnie Tyler.
