The legendary British entertainer, 64, and his daughter Honey Kinny Ross, 28, were responding to a question on the \u2018Table Manners with Jessie &amp; Lennie Ware\u2019 podcast, where they were asked if they had any obsessions.<\/p>\n<p>After Jonathan had responded, and gone into great detail, about his mammoth comic book collection, attention turned to his daughter, who responded with a little dig at her father. Speaking about his comic books she said: \u201cI don\u2019t think I have anything to the same level of kind of like neurotic fixation.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In response <a data-link-tracking=\"InArticle|Link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.express.co.uk\/celebrity-news\/2018917\/jonathan-ross-family-life-split-wife\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Jonathan<\/a> commented: \u201cI\u2019m going to push back at that in a minute. I\u2019m going to push back on you describing it as a neurotic fixation, but carry on.\u201d After this little back and forth, Honey revealed she didn\u2019t have what could best be described as an obsession, mostly due to the lack of space in her current home.<\/p>\n<p>She hit back: \u201cOk we\u2019re going to have a fight. I think if I had more space I would be more of a collector\/hoarder. I love a trinket. I collect a lot of miniature things. I love miniatures.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>However, this was nothing compared to the extend her father has gone to embrace his hobby of collecting comic books, something he put down to growing up in a poor household with very little money.<\/p>\n<p>On his collection, <a data-link-tracking=\"InArticle|Link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.express.co.uk\/celebrity-news\/2018917\/jonathan-ross-family-life-split-wife\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Jonathan<\/a> said he had \u201ctens of thousands\u201d of comics which have now reached so great a number, he had a special area built to house them.<\/p>\n<p>He explained: \u201cI still read some comics\u2026I had an area built to keep my comics in where it\u2019s shelving, and it\u2019s very nicely done shelving, because you should, ideally.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBecause if you\u2019ve got old comics, you should store them with a backing board in acid proof plastic with a second plastic bag on them.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhen you\u2019ve got those really old sought after ones, you want to keep them as pristine as possible, and they\u2019re all laid out, they\u2019re all sorted in numerical order and I&#8217;ve got them alphabetised divided into three or four different categories.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><a data-link-tracking=\"InArticle|Link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.express.co.uk\/celebrity-news\/2018917\/jonathan-ross-family-life-split-wife\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Jonathan<\/a> also said that he has two versions of many of his comics, one group for storage, and the other to read \u2013 which he calls his \u201cpristines\u201d and his \u201creaders\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>Alongside appearing on other people\u2019s podcasts, Jonathan and <a data-link-tracking=\"InArticle|Link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.express.co.uk\/celebrity-news\/1973175\/jonathan-ross-family-heartache-daughter-honey\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Honey<\/a> also co-host their own together and so form part of the celebrity podcasting circuit.<\/p>\n<p>As their podcast has grown, so too has <a data-link-tracking=\"InArticle|Link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.express.co.uk\/celebrity-news\/1973175\/jonathan-ross-family-heartache-daughter-honey\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Honey<\/a>\u2019s fame as she follows her father\u2019s footsteps into the world of entertainment. As a result, she has been able to become more open about her own life, outside of that with her father.<\/p>\n<p>One example of this has been talking about her <a data-link-tracking=\"InArticle|Link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.express.co.uk\/latest\/adhd\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">ADHD<\/a>, as she discussed how she gradually came to the realisation about her mental health.<\/p>\n<p>She said: &#8220;I&#8217;ve also been super hyperactive, can&#8217;t sit down, always fidgeting and I thought that was because I was anxious, and it wasn&#8217;t until my godmum got diagnosed with [<a data-link-tracking=\"InArticle|Link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.express.co.uk\/latest\/adhd\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">ADHD<\/a>] and things were clicking into place.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>On her role as a model, Honey has described herself as a body positive activist to show people they didn\u2019t need to change. She explained: \u201cI was welcomed into a whole world of objectification and pretty privilege.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLosing weight and seeing the way men suddenly noticed me made me feel that I didn\u2019t want anything to do with this patriarchal diet culture b*******.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m a nice person, most people are, and I don\u2019t want to feel that I need to change myself to exist. I should be able to exist as I am and that be enough.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Jonathan Ross got into a debate with his daughter as the duo sparred over his obsession with collecting&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":8604,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3940],"tags":[2012,5631,4080,5630,77,5629,208,5017,5627,5626,5628,5624,5625,16,15],"class_list":{"0":"post-8603","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-celebrities","8":"tag-adhd","9":"tag-body-positivity-activism","10":"tag-celebrities","11":"tag-comic-book-collection","12":"tag-entertainment","13":"tag-honey-kinny-ross","14":"tag-itv","15":"tag-jonathan-ross","16":"tag-jonathan-ross-age","17":"tag-jonathan-ross-daughter","18":"tag-jonathan-ross-daughter-podcast","19":"tag-jonathan-ross-itv","20":"tag-jonathan-ross-podcast","21":"tag-uk","22":"tag-united-kingdom"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@uk\/114314874917490112","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8603","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=8603"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8603\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/8604"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=8603"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=8603"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=8603"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
