Ant Middleton has revealed his close friendship with Shane Warne’s son Jackson.
The SAS Australia star tells the Mental like anyone else Podcast in which the couple is seen to share a close bond.
“I talk to Jackson a lot. We’ve had some heart-to-hearts. Jackson is a man of few words, he’s more of an introvert than an extrovert,” the 43-year-old said.
“We’ve built a special relationship and, you know, it’s one that… we’re definitely going to grow old together, so yeah, I’m looking forward to it.”
Ant says the 25-year-old “has a lovely, calming aura around him, he’s super positive.”
The British star added that Jackson wants to be surrounded by “positive” influences following the tragic death of his father.
“That’s why it’s so important to surround yourself with positive people, people… who make you feel better about yourself, who make you a better person, who give you that energy or that comfort,” she said.

This comes after Jackson revealed a personal victory on Instagram, having pledged to go a whole year without alcohol following the death of his cricket star father.
In an inspiring display of resilience, she decided to honor her father’s memory not with grief, but with dedication to health and clarity.
Jackson shared the goal he set for himself at the beginning of 2023: to remain alcohol-free year-round.
He wanted to demonstrate a healthier way to cope with life’s difficulties, especially after experiencing the immense loss of his beloved father.
After his father tragically died, Jackson said he could have let his grief ruin him.

Ant says the 25-year-old “has a lovely, calming aura around him, he’s super positive.”
Instead, she decided to focus on her health and channel her trauma into “energy for life.”
She wrote on Instagram: “This year could have easily gone downhill. I could have drank too much alcohol, gambled too much, skipped the gym, eaten junk food and not socialised. Been miserable. But I didn’t.
“I didn’t do it because I used that trauma as energy for life. I surrounded myself with good people, went to the gym EVERY DAY, drank water, swam, laughed a lot and was consistent. One day at a time.”
She said she had never felt happier or healthier, and encouraged her nearly 100,000 followers to do the same.
“Health is wealth. Exercising, laughing, drinking water and getting outdoors costs nothing. If you do this, I promise you will be as happy and healthy as you can be,” he said.
