And after recently tasting watermelon, the 21-year-old son of cricketing legend Shane Warne has now given beer a taste for the first time.
On Tuesday, the SAS Australia star shared a video on Instagram, revealing to his followers: ‘I’ve actually never had a beer either. Who would have thought?’

Convicted drug smuggler Schapelle Corby, 43, had to explain that it was tomato soup, and it was ‘good’ to eat.
While filming SAS Australia in August, Jackson had the opportunity to eat a variety of foods he’d never tried before, including sushi, pineapple, rockmelon, mandarins and even steak.
In an interview with news.com.au, he explained that his limited diet consists of: ‘Eggs, bacon, toast, cereal, burgers, nachos, chips, apples… that’s about it.’
The model went on to reveal his typical day on a plate starts with ‘eggs, bacon and an oat shake’ for breakfast, and he would eat ‘burgers, protein shakes, pasta or lasagna’ for lunch and dinner.
