Freddie Flintoff was one of England's top cricket stars and after his retirement in 2010, he turned his hand to presenting with major shows like A League of Their Own and Top Gear.
However, the 47-year-old's career took a hit in late 2022 when he was involved in a major high-speed accident while filming Top Gear. Following the crash, Freddie was airlifted to hospital and left with major facial injuries. The star is now back in a Disney+ documentary, where he will explore the crash's impact on his life.

Freddie's net worth
Freddie is worth quite a lot with the former cricket star reportedly having a net worth of £15 million, according to Celebrity Net Worth.
Freddie's earnings have come his cricketing career, which lasted between 1998 and 2010, and a brief return from retirement in the 2014/2015 season.

Although Freddie served as the face for clothing brand Jacamo and Morrison's, it's unclear how much the star made from these brand deals.

Top Gear settlement
In late 2022, Freddie was involved in a crash while driving a three-wheeled car around the Top Gear test track in Surrey. Speaking in his documentary, he says he was driving at around 40-45mph when one of the wheels lifted off the ground, causing the accident.

In a heartbreaking moment of his series, Freddie confessed: "I didn't think I had it in me to get through. This sounds awful: part of me wishes I'd been killed. Part of me thinks 'I wish I had died'. I didn't want to kill myself. I don't want to mistake the two things. But I was thinking, 'This would have been so much easier.'"
