Ex-YTT Star Beven Addinsall Embarks on Global Cruise Adventure
6 Dec, 2025
Summary
- Beven Addinsall, formerly of Young Talent Time, will be a cruise director.
- He lost an impressive 25kg in 12 months through fasting.
- Addinsall will visit 13 new countries, including Antarctica.
Beven Addinsall, who found fame on the iconic Australian series Young Talent Time, is embarking on a new chapter as a cruise director. The 54-year-old performer will soon join the Oceana Marina, undertaking a demanding 130-day contract that will take him to 13 new countries and Antarctica.
This exciting global itinerary follows Addinsall's recent personal achievement: a significant 25kg weight loss over the past year. He credits his success to intermittent fasting and eliminating processed sugar, a change he felt was necessary for the physical demands of his new role. Addinsall noted his strong work ethic was forged during his time on Young Talent Time.
Despite the show ending decades ago, Addinsall maintains strong bonds with his former castmates, with recent reunions and plans to honor a departed colleague. Reflecting on the show's past success, he acknowledges the challenges of replicating such a family-oriented program in today's fragmented media landscape.
