Professor Green’s ‘Suicide And Me’ Documentary Changed A Viewer’s Life

Professor Green’s ‘Suicide and Me’ documentary, which aired on BBC Three last October proved to be a success with audiences - and even helped one viewer to turn their life around.

Pro Green, real name Stephen Manderson, had been contacted by a viewer after the show that had wanted to thank him for completely changing their outlook.

Stephen, 32, explained: “They’d tried to take their life previously, but having seen the documentary and watched it with their children they could never put them through that. It completely changed their outlook.”

It seems that the documentary in which Stephen discussed his father’s suicide had an impact on many, as he admitted that he’s constantly getting stopped in the street by people that wish to express their gratitude towards him.

The rapper, who has also battled depression, explained: “People have come to me for help, but I’m not a psychologist. I can’t take on everyone else’s problems when I still have my own.”

Despite his past and any current issues that he faces, he’s looking forward to starting a family in the future with his wife, Made in Chelsea star Millie Mackintosh. Though he admits that work would need to “wind down”, so that he could be a “present father.”

In the meantime, he’s enjoying his work and is looking forward to co-hosting ‘Lip Sync Battle’ on Channel 5 tonight at 10pm.

He added: “I wanted to show people that I can have a laugh. It’s not all doom and gloom.”
