Hall has previously revealed the ‘worrying’ security issues he has faced since becoming a household name.
‘In my old house I had a lot of problems of people coming on to my property and knocking on the door at stupid hours asking for autographs and pictures,’ Hall said on his YouTube channel.
‘I’ve had it where people have climbed over the fence to knock on. As innocent as that may, sound it’s quite worrying.
‘And since I’ve lived here, I was in my hot tub a couple of weeks ago, somebody just wondered into my back garden and literally offered me a fight, literally put his fists up and said, ‘Let’s do some boxing training.’
‘So it just goes to show, being who I am does draw the wackos, so the security has been the number one feature for me.’
