Australian influencer shares shocking photos of himself passed out on a cricket field after a night of taking hard drugs: 'My lowest point'

Daily Mail​5 days ago
Australian influencer Kurt Coleman has taken to social media to ' relive' his days of partying - and renounce his 'wild ways '.
Posting a throwback photo to his Instagram this week, the 26-year-old TikTok star can be seen sprawled on a patch of grass near a cricket pitch, looking the worse for wear.
In the caption Coleman said the photo, taken in 2017, was his 'lowest point' and was snapped after he had spent a night taking an 'unlimited' amount of alcohol and hard drugs.
Coleman confessed in the share that at the time he was 'addicted' to partying.
He added that after the night the photograph was taken, he never used hard drugs again.

'It's crazy when a flashback of a photo comes up and it's like your lowest point!' he said in the post on Tuesday.
He also shared a second image that showed him stretched out on a patch of grass, with a group of cricketers playing a match in the background.
'This was in 2017, when I was working in clubs every night hosting or DJing, and everyone around me would give me unlimited alcohol and drugs all night,' he said.
'I was addicted to partying because I loved the numb feeling of just dancing all night and not caring about anything, so much that I literally made my career and what i was getting paid for all about it.'
Coleman indicated that the photo taken on that fateful night was a wake up call.
He continued, 'Then I woke up on a cricket field in the photo - that's how one of my best friends found me.
'That was literally my lowest point, and from there I was like, "I'm stopping this. I've never taken any hard drugs since that night."'
Coleman said that his partying days were not fuelled by his own attempts to purchase drugs, but by being offered them by others.
'People would just try and give [them] to me all the time when I was out,' he said.
He said the experience really woke him up, and he has since stopped partying.
Coleman now says he is 'balanced' and is a 'healthy person'.
'I can have a glass of wine and not have to get smashed to feel good,' he admitted.
Coleman concluded, 'I'm so grateful for the bad things I've done and that have happened because it's made me want to be better.
'So swipe through and you'll see the best version of me I've become. We've all had low points so I thought I'd share what I consider one of mine to be.'
Coleman, who first rose to fame in 2016 thanks to his social media posts, has in recent years been on a health journey.
He has shared his weight loss and fitness quest with his fans in recent months.
Kurt, who posts regular photos of his body - which he describes as his 'temple' - said he is now the 'most "me" I have ever felt'.

Channel 4 insist they are 'proud' to show Bonnie Blue documentary

Bonnie Blue at the launch of her Channel 4 documentary (Image: Edward Ed Gleave) Channel 4 has defended the decision to make a documentary about online porn star Bonnie Blue - insisting it is 'proud' of the film and that is wants to 'stimulate debate". Viewers tuning in to watch 1000 Men and Me: The Bonnie Blue Story this week will receive an on air warning about the content before the documentary airs at 10pm. It features multiple scenes of graphic sex not normally seen on TV. Tia Billinger uses the stage name Bonnie Blue and invites men to have sex with her which she films and makes money from online. She is also known for angering and abusing other women online, including by suggesting she likes to sleep with married men. In January she caused social media outrage by announcing she'd slept with 1,057 men in 12 hours. Channel 4 insist they are 'proud' to show Bonnie Blue documentary (Image: Instagram/bonnie_blue_xo) The Channel 4 documentary's crew and director rarely question her about the abuse she gives to other women and her financial claims of earning millions each month also go unquestioned or unproven on screen. She also uses other younger girls to make one film and they say they are not being paid, despite the fact Tia would make thousands from the film. Aside from Tia expressing some fears about walking in public alone, the tone is largely celebratory. Asked about their decision to broadcast the documentary, Channel 4 told the Mirror: 'Tia Billinger, via her stage name Bonnie Blue, has gained worldwide attention and millions of pounds in the last year. 1000 Men and Me: The Bonnie Blue Story is an observational documentary in which director Victoria Silver follows Tia over the course of six months. The film questions Tia's methods and the divisive style of her social media and hears from colleagues and collaborators in order to understand her polarising business model. "Part of Channel 4's remit is to reflect modern Britain and stimulate debate amongst viewers, and a film such as this, exploring changing attitudes to sex, success, porn, and feminism in an ever-evolving online world is an important addition to those conversations. 'Channel 4 has a track record of programmes that examine the porn industry from a variety of perspectives. In the last two years we have broadcast programmes such as Sex Actually with Alice Levine that looked at a range of sexual experiences, while OnlyFans Got Me Fired: Untold and Confessions of a Cam Girl showed the personal cost of porn for content creators.' They also insisted the sections of the documentary showing Bonnie having sex multiple times across the documentary was necessary. They added: 'Careful consideration has been given to the content and the way in which it is included. The explicit content in the documentary is editorially justified and provides essential context; making pornographic content is Bonnie's job, and this film is about her work and the response to it. Crucially, the content is presented in a non-gratuitous manner and viewers will be alerted of the sexual content in a programme warning at the start to ensure they understand from the outset the nature of the programme.' Journalists were shown the film at a screening at Channel 4 last week attended by Tia, where even she expressed surprise at how many sex scenes 'were in there'. Introducing the film, Commissioning Editor Tim Hancock said before the screening: 'I believe it is Channel 4's job to tell stories like this, trying to get behind the truth of the headlines. We film real stories in real time. We are very proud to do films like this.' Asked why there was so much porn in the documentary and if she was braced for complaints, director Victoria Silver said: 'I had to explain to her(Tia) if I was making a film about a musician or some kind of other performer their work would be in there. I think it is important to see what she does.' * 1000 Men and Me: The Bonnie Blue Story is on Channel 4 on Tuesday night at 10pm.

Kerry Katona says she's 'failing' as a single mum - 'I've never done enough'

Kerry Katona has admitted she feels like she's constantly 'failing' as a single mum of five (Image: kerrykatona7/Instagram) Kerry Katona has opened up about her struggles as a mum, admitting that she constantly feels as though she's 'failing' to raise her brood. The former singer is a mum to Molly, 23, and Lilly-Sue, 22, who she shares with first husband Brian McFadden, Heidi, 18, and Max, 17, whose father is her ex Mark Croft and youngest daughter, DJ, ten, who she welcomed with late spouse George Kay. Writing in her weekly New! Magazine column, Kerry sent her support to Fearne Cotton, who recently opened up about feeling 'overwhelmed' as a single mum since splitting from her husband Jesse Wood. Comparing her own experience with parenthood, Kerry wrote: "I saw Fearne Cotton open up recently about how she feels 'overwhelmed' as a single mum at times. "Truth is, us mums all feel like that sometimes. Being a single mum is the hardest thing I've done in my life, and you can feel like you're failing every day." Kerry, who is a mum to four daughters and one son, says it's the 'hardest job she's ever done' (Image: INSTAGRAM) Kerry continued: "You never feel like you've done enough, especially with multiple children who have different needs. But, if your kids have a roof over their heads and food to eat, they're absolutely fine. We need to go easier on ourselves. Fearne is doing a fantastic job and needs to remember that." The comments come after Fearne admitted she felt she was "dropping a lot of balls" as a single mum while recently appearing on Women's Health magazine's new podcast, Just As Well. "I had nothing the kids liked for breakfast on Monday, nothing. I had cereal, but no milk. I had butter, but no bread. I tried to make pancakes, I had no maple syrup. It is like an absolute s**t show," Fearne began. She continued, "So I'm just dropping lots of balls constantly and never feeling like I'm doing anything particularly well. But enjoying most of it. I would say enjoying most of it." Fearne added that parenthood also has her "crying in her car" at times. Fearne Cotton split from her husband Jesse Wood in December (Image:) Fearne split from her husband of ten years in December, sharing the news in a statement to X which read: "It is with a heavy heart that | let you all know that Jesse and I are ending our marriage. Our priority has been, and will always be, our children. We please ask that you respect the privacy of our family at this time". During their time together, the couple - who married in 2014 - welcomed two children - Rex and Honey - and said their priority will always remain on the pair, as well as Jesse's two older kids, Arthur and Lola.
