Middleton had a long and successful military career before becoming a TV star.

Prior to joining the SBS, Middleton also served in the Royal Marines and 9 Parachute Squadron Royal Engineers – meaning that he had achieved the ‘Holy Trinity’ of the UK’s Elite Forces (P Company, Commando Course, UK Special Forces Selection).

He also operated as a security expert in South Africa and across various other countries for governments in West Africa.

He has trained presidential security teams and also ran extreme SAS style corporate events for large companies who wanted to truly experience the extremes of Special Forces selection.
