Retired presenter Alastair Stewart has confirmed he has dementia live on air, during an interview with GB News, where he left in 2021.
“And I then decided at the ripe old age of my late fifties, early sixties, that I might have something wrong up here [taps head].`”Speaking in the interview on GB News, Alastair Stewart explained that the most difficult thing since being diagnosed with dementia is seeing his wife being “reduced to a carer”.He added: “I find it tricky, because your health through no fault of your own is reducing this person [his wife] who is the single most important person in your life to the role of a carer.
“But also do remember that the people you work with and the people you live with and share your life with are the most important people in the entire world.”
