Reflecting on the incident, Levi shared that he was sent to a detention center at the age of 16 for burgling houses. When asked if he could forgive his father, Levi revealed that he never forgave him, even after his father's passing.

Levi Roots was raised by his grandmother in Jamaica before moving to the UK at the age of 11 to reunite with his parents. He gained fame after appearing on Dragons' Den in 2007 and later became known for his Reggae Reggae Sauce, which has contributed to his estimated worth of around £35 million.
