According to Daily Mirror - Main, Reverend Richard Coles described using Mounjaro injections to manage his weight, noting he had gained weight after his dog died and he stopped daily walks. He said the injections have been helpful, and he aims to come off them and get a dog, though his partner, actor Dickie Cant, 62, vetoed getting a corgi and would rather have a cat. It is unknown what specific health reasons led him to choose Mounjaro over other methods, how long he has been using it, or his planned timeline for coming off it.
Coles lives in Friston, East Sussex, and the status of his relationship with Cant regarding the pet disagreement remains unclear. Coles was the vicar of Findeon, Northamptonshire, until retiring in 2022. His husband, Reverend David Coles, died in December 2019 at age 43 from alcohol-related liver disease.
I was getting a tad plump. And my dog died so I didn't have to go out for a walk every day. I was getting fat. But I'm on the fat jabs now and that's been really helpful. I've had a great time with them. It's so good not having to go to the gym. I think I've lost about 15% of my body weight. I was getting older, and because I like food and I like wine… go figure!
His new children's book, 'A Heist Before Bedtime', is being released this week, though the exact release date and publisher are not confirmed. According to Daily Mirror - Main, Coles described that if he organized a heist, he would target the Crown Jewels, believing the imperial state crown would suit him. In the Church of England, Dame Sarah Mullally was appointed as the first female Archbishop of Canterbury last month, with women accounting for 32% of active clergy.
According to Daily Mirror - Main, Coles described being glad Mullally is in the role, despite the Throne of Augustine being cold. It is unknown what specific initiatives or changes Coles expects under her leadership.
Coming off the Mounjaro and getting a dog is my aim. Although Dickie vetoed getting a corgi, and in fact would rather a cat.
If I were to organise a heist, I’d go for the Crown Jewels. I like them and I think the imperial state crown would rather suit me. I think I would cut a bit of a dash.
I'm really glad it's Sarah who is sitting on the Throne of Augustine, as cold and as in need of a heat pad as it may be.
