THE SCRIPT FRONTMAN DANNY O’DONOGHUE, 40, ON MEETING THE QUEEN FACING HIS FEARS AND FALLING FOR SOB STORIES
RACHEL CORCORAN
Danny O'Donoghue

My not so hidden interest is… my love of Muay Thai. I love fighting and combat sports. I’d watch two pigeons fighting over a piece of cheese. I have done since I was a child, but I took up Muay Thai when I was about 32. I was sick of trying to get fit on the treadmill, so I started hitting pads one day.

There is nothing more important than… family. That includes my girlfriend, who’s my rock. And those people who back me and are genuinely happy for me, they’ve been pulled even closer since Covid. When my mum and dad passed away, everybody showed up to the funerals, but not everybody showed up for the rest of the year, for the really dark moments. True friends are the ones who check in and although you may not talk to them for months, you pick up where you left off.
