what happened to ant middleton

Ant Middleton hasn’t disappeared; he’s still active in TV, live tours, and business projects, but his career has shifted a lot since his early SAS: Who Dares Wins fame.

Key things that happened

  • He was dropped by UK broadcaster Channel 4 in 2021 from SAS: Who Dares Wins over what the channel called “personal conduct” issues and concerns about his comments and behavior, which he strongly disputed as cancel culture and “woke” overreaction.
  • After that, he moved much more into books, speaking tours, and overseas TV work, and has repeatedly said he felt “silenced” in the UK and chose to base more of his life and work abroad.

SAS Australia and recent TV drama

  • Middleton became the frontman of SAS Australia on Channel Seven, but the show went on hiatus after 2023 and is returning in 2026 as SAS: Australia v England without him listed as directing staff.
  • Separately, he and his brother were pulled mid‑series from The Amazing Race Australia after a code‑of‑conduct incident involving his brother in an on‑set altercation; producers removed their team even though reports say Ant wasn’t directly involved.

What he’s doing now

  • He runs live “Live & Unscripted” tours and special forces–style leadership/adventure events, leaning into his motivational and mindset brand rather than mainstream UK TV presenting.
  • He remains active on social media, teasing that 2026 “will set the precedent” and promoting self‑improvement and adventure content, showing he’s still very much in the public eye.
