Sky Sports personality Chris Kamara revealed that he feels “like a fraud” after opening up about his battle with Speech Apraxia.
After featuring on an episode of Dragon Den star, Steven Bartlett’s podcast, Kamara told viewers that Speech Apraxia meant that speaking is very difficult, and it feels as though someone has taken over his voice box.
He told Diary of a CEO viewers he sometimes watches back old clips of him presenting and it’s like watching someone else, he said: “it’s very strange.”
According to the NHS, Speech Apraxia makes it difficult to get the jaw, lips and tongue to move in the way required to form words, even though the person knows what they would like to say.

He currently presents Ninja Warrior UK with Sheppard and Rochelle Humes.
He shared with Bartlett in the tell-all podcast that he is well aware of his altered speech, and that he feels like a fraud from time to time.
