Gladiators star Rebel is now a MULTI millionaire 25 years after appearing on ITV show
25 YEARS after she appeared on Gladiators, Rebel is now a multi millionaire.
The former athlete appeared on the ITV show from 1996 until 1999 before going on to represent the UK on an international level.
Jennifer Stoute, 59, was part of Team GB as a sprinter in international athletics for over a decade.
She won a bronze medal at the 1992 Olympics in Barcelona in the 4x400m relay.
The star was also known for winning the gold at the 1990 Commonwealth Games.
A crippling hamstring injury in 1993 made her stop competing in International competitions.
However, she joined the roster of Gladiators on the famous ITV show just three years later where she gained a new on-screen alter-ego called Rebel.
Although she excelled in many events, Powerball and Pendulum were particular favourites in the primetime challenge show.
She was also only defeated by one competitor on The Wall for her entire tenure on the show.
After she quit the fan favourite show in 1999, she later went on to appear in Ridley Scott’s Oscar-winning classic, Gladiator.
The former TV star then stepped away from the camera and into running her own business.
Her successful sports management agency, Astra Partners is now said to be worth a whopping £3.8million.
She owns the company with her ex-husband John Regis MBE, who is also a sprinting world champion in his own right.
Together, they share two children who have also gone on to compete in the world of athletics.
Her 22-year-old daughter Alicia Jazmin Regis embarked on a health and fitness career, whilst her 19-year-old daughter Renee Regis has competed as a track and field athlete in a number of events.
However, Jennifer does still step in front of the camera from time to time, having appeared in adverts for Garnier and Look Fantastic.
