He appeared in an advertisement for the bookmaker Paddy Power ahead of golf's 2014 Ryder Cup.

Nigel Paul Farage was born on April 3, 1964, in Farnborough, Kent, England. He attended Dulwich College, a private school in London. Instead of pursuing a university education, he became a commodities trader at age 18, working with firms such as Drexel Burnham Lambert and Crédit Lyonnais Rouse. Initially a member of the Conservative Party, Farage left in 1992 in protest against the Maastricht Treaty and co-founded the UK Independence Party (UKIP) in 1993, driven by a Eurosceptic stance advocating for Britain’s withdrawal from the European Union.
Farage was elected to the European Parliament (MEP) in 1999, where he served until 2020. He led UKIP from 2006 to 2009 and again from 2010 to 2016. Under his leadership, UKIP saw increased popularity, particularly in the 2009 and 2014 European Parliament elections, where it achieved significant results. His advocacy was central to the campaign leading up to the 2016 EU referendum, where 52% of voters chose to leave the EU. Following the referendum, Farage announced his resignation as UKIP leader, stating his political ambition had been achieved. In 2019, he launched the Brexit Party, later rebranded as Reform UK in 2021, continuing his focus on national sovereignty and immigration.
In 2024, Farage returned to frontline politics, announcing his leadership of Reform UK and his candidacy for Member of Parliament for Clacton. This marked his eighth attempt to secure a seat in the British Parliament. He successfully won the Clacton seat in the 2024 general election, becoming an MP for the first time. Outside of politics, Farage has also engaged in broadcasting, hosting shows on LBC and GB News, and participated in reality television.
