‘As some of you already know, for the last few years since I was medically discharged from the army – I have struggled to cope with every day life,’ he added.

He continued: ‘I have finally got some answers and have been diagnosed with PTSD, depression, anxiety and adjustment disorder, as well as ankle, knee and back injuries.’

Jarrod revealed he has become an ambassador for F45 gym and physical training has improved his ‘mental health and well-being’.

‘I’ll use Instagram as a bit of a journal to keep you all posted on my journey – with F45, food, psych, relaxation, medication, lifestyle and more! The good, the bad and the ugly!!’ he said.

‘I’ll try my best to be completely open with where I’m at and hopefully my honesty will help some of you too. Can’t wait to look back on this in a year and see how far I’ve come.’

Jarrod found love with former Bachelor hopeful Sam, earlier this year.

Before finding ‘forever’ with his new love, Jarrod was in a relationship with Keira Maguire. 

They began a dating after meeting on season one of Bachelor In Paradise back in 2018.

During a rough patch in the relationship, he blamed Keira’s obsession with Instagram as a big factor that led to their breakup. 

The couple reunited in January 2019 before splitting up for good in August of that year.
