Freddie Flintoff Height, Age and Career

He’s a sporting legend, a presenter on our tv screens, and a celeb in the public eye: what else is there to know about Freddie Flintoff’s height, age and career?

Freddie became to be in the public eye by beginning work in the England cricket team. From there, his career has rocketed and his name is known for more than just cricket matches.

Freddie Flintoff Early Life

Before we start talking about Freddie Flintoff’s height and career, let’s begin with where it all started. Andrew ‘Freddie’ Flintoff was born in December 1977, making him 43 years of age, and he grew up in Preston, Lancashire. He didn’t end up staying at school and left education at 16 years old. From there, he joined the England under-19 team, and that’s where his cricketing career catapulted.

Freddie Flintoff Career

Freddie Flintoff’s height is something of an advantage in his career as he is first known for being an international cricketer. A massive achievement was winning Sports Personality of the Year after Ashes 2005. After being man of the series, he retired from Cricket in 2010. Sporting wise, he’s even done professional boxing – most known for his fight with Richard Dawson in 2012…

That’s not all he’s known for, though. Of course, famously, he is a Top Gear presenter, and that’s probably where we’ve seen him on our TV screens the most. He’s not only known for that, because he has a prolific media career and has been majorly involved in the entertainment industry. This includes releasing books, a documentary, and he was even on the Australian version of I’m a Celeb!

Flintoff was crowned king of the Jungle in March 2015, and was in competition with the likes of Chrissie Swan and Barry Hall. When he won, he told The Express:

“As an Englishman winning something in Australia, it’s unheard of. I’m shocked. I’m stuck for words a little bit. I never expected to get this far. It’s a lot to take in really. I am shocked, surprised, pleased.”

In 2020, he published his self help book called ‘Right, Said Fred’ which follows his book ‘Do You Know What?’ which came out in 2015. Through the success of his books, he is known as a best selling author and his new book discusses the highs and lows experienced in the year of 2020.

Freddie has also recently released a documentary about his experience with bulimia and his struggle with anorexia as a child. This was broadcasted in September 2020. He told the BBC:

“It’s an ongoing process for me. And I think if I had help earlier on, then maybe I wouldn’t still be living with an eating disorder now. Thinking about the impact it’s had on my life makes me really sad.”
