TRAITORS star Harry Clark has broken his silence after being booted off SAS: Who Dares Wins for cheating.
It was a humbling moment for the ex-Army lad, who has now admitted he “hated” his time on the Channel 4 show.
Directing staff Billy Billingham and Jason Fox caught Harry out performing only 10 burpee exercises when he’d been challenged to do 20 – then lied about it.
He was meant to complete the set before pulling a switch.
Harry said: “Obviously I was so disheartened and so annoyed, but at the same time in the back of my head I was like, ‘but it’s all right though because I’ve made that switch, I’m here to stay’.
“I did exactly what I would do in the military.
“And that’s what annoyed me so much because it was like I just hit that switch, but they’d kicked me off for it.
“So it was like, well then how can I prove to you now that I’ve changed?
“But then at the same time, when I look back on it and I’ve matured a lot now, they’ve probably done me a favour because I know that the next big stage was the interrogation phase.”
The show was filmed in September last year.
Celebrities always dread the interrogation segment and many crumble.
Harry added: “The place where I was mentally and physically, I would’ve definitely been broken down easy. I was easy pickings.
“So I think they actually done me a favour kicking me off the show, they probably saw that I needed to go and sort myself out.
“I didn’t like the experience that much, personally, it made me angry at them and myself that I wanted to get better.
“I felt like they didn’t like me.
“I absolutely hated it while I was there.
“I just want people to be able to look at me now and think that is a completely different person.”
The episode of Harry’s exit aired as The Sun revealed he had got into a shocking brawl at the Brits Awards with a Tiktok star.
Harry is said to have had a “drunken scuffle” with Moe Osman at the glitzy bash in March.
Sources close to Harry say he retaliated after being “antagonised” by the influencer, who goes by the username of Hellacreps online.
Harry was an Army helicopter engineer for seven years but left the forces following his Traitors win.
