On Monday, Mo Farah revealed that his real name is Hussein Abdi Kahin and that he was given the name Mohamed Farah by those who brought him into the UK illegally.The Olympic star would later gain citizenship under this name, rather than the name given to him at birth.Within the documentary, which revealed his real identity, Mo was stunned to learn that he could potentially lose his British citizenship.

However, the Home Office have announced that they will not be investigating Mo Farah.In an interview with BBC Radio 4's Today programme Mo Farah would comment that this news "Makes me relieved"."This is my country. If it wasn't for [my PE teacher] Alan and the people who supported me throughout my childhood then maybe I wouldn't even have the courage to do this."

There's a lot of people that I owe my life to - particularly my wife, who has been very supportive throughout my career, and who gave me the strength to come and talk about it, telling me it's okay to do this.""I wasn't even comfortable enough to talk about it with my family. I couldn't talk about it publicly. It has taken me a long time to come to this, but I'm glad I've made this documentary to show people the reality of what really happened to me as a child."
