Netflix has just dropped a new documentary on highly controversial fitness influencer
Netflix has just released a new documentary on the highly controversial fitness influencer the Liver King, and it’s not for the faint-hearted.
The TikToker gained popularity by promoting an extreme raw meat diet and a so-called ‘ancestral’ lifestyle that involved reverting to a primal way of life and consuming a lot of liver. However, he faced public backlash when it was revealed that his chiselled physique – which he claimed was solely due to the lifestyle he promoted – was actually assisted by steroid use.
Today (May 13), Untold: The Liver King premiered on the platform where the Liver King himself (real name Brian Johnson) discusses his public downfall and his future plans. It also includes interviews with his family, friends and those who worked alongside him to establish his brand.
The documentary synopsis reads: “He built a supplement empire by devouring raw meat on social media. And he had the muscles to prove it. But really, how did the Liver King get so huge?”
In one scene that’s not for the squeamish, viewers witness a typical family day out for the Johnsons, which involves slaughtering a bull before tearing out and eating its organs with their bare hands. Brian has two sons, Rad and Stryker, whom he shares with wife Barbara Johnson, reports Surrey Live.
Barbara, also known as The Liver Queen, is a prominent figure in the documentary. In one scene, she candidly expresses her belief that her husband should have kept his steroid use private. But what more is there to know about the wife, mother and entrepreneur?
Who is the Liver Queen?
The Liver King’s official website reveals that Barbara’s birth name is Bozena. Born in Poland, she relocated to America when she was 15 and went on to establish a successful career in dentistry, even owning her own practice.
She has since retired from her dental career and now manages Krowa Beauty, an edible, animal-based beauty brand, with her husband. She also has a significant social media presence, boasting 172,000 followers on Instagram at the time of writing.
Barbara met Brian while snowboarding in Park City, Utah, and they were engaged just two months later. They exchanged vows four months after their initial meeting in a ceremony on the island of Nevis.
Like her husband, The Liver Queen follows the ‘ancestral’ lifestyle. Her daily diet includes consuming three ounces of testicles per day with hot sauce, having one ounce at breakfast, one for dinner and another as a snack before bed.
