Love Island Star Paul Danan Finds Surprising New Career Away from TV

From Addiction to Helping Others

Love Island original star Paul Danan has embarked on a new career, away from the spotlight. After revealing his mission to help addicts earlier this year, Paul has found another surprising venture.

Managing a Bristol Hip-Hop Act

Paul, best known for his role as Sol Patrick in Hollyoaks, is now managing a spoken-word Bristol hip-hop act. He was recently credited as the director for a hip-hop inspired spoken-word video on YouTube.

Drama School for Addiction Recovery

Paul's work in addiction recovery goes beyond managing a hip-hop act. Earlier this year, he set up a drama school specifically for people struggling with addiction after receiving a lottery grant. The initiative aims to turn lives around by combining Paul's acting talents and industry knowledge with his own experience of recovery.

Mission to Help Others

Paul's mission to help those battling drug addiction is detailed on the group's website. Through specifically focused and non-judgmental opportunities, they aim to bring individuals out from the shadows and into a brighter future.

Celebrity Coach Trip and Therapy

In 2022, Paul appeared on Celebrity Coach Trip, an experience that left him needing therapy. The process of being voted off the coach by other participants tapped into deep emotions and feelings of rejection.

Paul Danan's surprising new career shows how individuals can use their own personal experiences to make a positive impact on others. His work in addiction recovery and managing a hip-hop act exemplifies the power of second chances and the potential for personal growth.
