Alan Carr has revealed it was his comedy that "probably stopped him having a breakdown" when his marriage was collapsing and his dog was "slowly fading" earlier this year.

Alan, 46, has opened up about how he got through the difficult period of his marriage ending at the beginning of the year which was then followed by the loss of his beloved dog Bev who died in May.

He told the Daily Mail Weekend magazine: “All this stuff at home was happening, and even writing about it was hard because things were changing. “It was like nailing blancmange to the wall, like the tectonic plates of my relationship were shifting.Then Bev was slowly fading.” The comedian continued: “I know it sounds silly but, yes, there were times I’d stand in the wings and just shake and think I couldn’t go on. “I think the audience sensed that too.There was like an extra cheer from them, a ‘Go on, Alan’.

I needed that.” He added: “I didn’t have a breakdown, no. I don’t want to say I did because I didn’t. But comedy probably stopped me having a breakdown.” Alan and his husband Paul, 47, shared the news that they split after 13 years together in January 2022.
