Heston Blumenthal has expressed his fears that the intense pressure depicted in 'The Bear' could potentially trigger his bipolar episodes, which he's been managing since his diagnosis.
Blumenthal remarked on the authenticity of the show, noting that several chef friends consulted on it, expressing hopes to watch it once he's in a better mental space.
His wife, Melanie Ceysson, echoed his concerns, stating that the series represents the biggest trigger for Heston's mental health condition amid their ongoing battle with bipolar.
Bipolar UK highlights the prevalence of the disorder in the UK, estimating about 1.3 million people live with this severe mental health condition that causes extreme mood changes.
