Sir Bradley Wiggins reveals battle with cocaine addiction after cycling retirement
Sir Bradley Wiggins, the former Tour de France winner and five-time Olympic champion, has opened up about his battle with cocaine addiction following his retirement from cycling.
Wiggins retired from cycling in 2016 and spiralled into addiction in the following years to the extent in which his children wanted to put him in rehab amid fears the issue could prove fatal.
