But he unexpectedly quit his fitness presenting role in 2000 on GMTV.
A few years later he returned to Jamaica for the health of his daughter.
Here he set up an eco tourist resort and also a paintball destination.
Writing in his book, he explained: “As a child, in 2003, she was having breathing problems, so we moved back to Jamaica where her health improved, and opened eco-tourism resort H’Evans Scent and the PaintSplat paintball centre.”
However, he continued to return to the UK several times a year for entertainment bookings.
Where does he live now?
In 2018, Mr Motivator returned to the UK with his family, settling in Manchester.
And by 2020 – he realised he was back in demand due to the sudden explosion in home workouts.
With millions stuck at home, suddenly his retro workouts regained popularity.
Where can I find Mr Motivator workouts?
Many Mr Motivator workouts are available to stream.
Last year he also joined HealthCheck UK Live on the BBC – some of which is still available to stream online.
But his official workout videos are mainly available on his YouTube channel.
Here, viewers have access to dozens of workouts. Most of which are less than 15 minutes in length.
What has he said about the NHS?
Mr Motivator is an ardent supporter of the NHS.
But he thinks unfit people and smokers should pay to receive its services.
Speaking to The Sun earlier this year he argued: “You have got to treat everybody, but what really bugs me is that you know the warnings; if you pay no attention to it well then maybe you should be digging your hand in your pocket and paying more towards your treatment.”

Before adding: “You cannot deny someone treatment no matter the ailment, but maybe if I was warned by the doctor and it was listed in 1983 that you were warned, ‘If you don’t do this, you know, it is going to happen’; well if you need treatment maybe you should be paying a further ten percent into the NHS.”
