In recent years, he has divided his time between the United Kingdom and France. There he continues to write, record and perform.

His personal and artistic journey was documented in the film Stranger in My Own Skin (2023). The film offers a rare and honest insight into his world. It was directed by Katia de Vidas, his partner and wife.
