Newly wed Alex Reid has been struck down with a bad case of Delhi Belly, as he films his new fighting show in India.

Bravo channel’s Alex Reid: The Fight Of His Life will see Alex fighting against a range of martial art experts.

And as he arrived in the Indian town of Nashik, a friend told The Sun: “He could barely speak he was so shattered. And now he’s got a week of being pummelled by fighters.”

The pal added: “His body clock is all over the place and he looks awful. The poor man can hardly stand – it’s no wonder his immune system fell at the first hurdle.”

Alex said: “I just want to go to bed.”

Alex will be back in the UK for his fiirst Valentines Day with new wife Katie Price however one of his entourage warned: “If Kate thinks he’s going to be up for a romantic night, she’s in for a surprise. Alex will come back a broken man.”
