Deaf Cleese ‘happy I can’t hear rubbish’

- BY TOM BRYANT

JOHN Cleese has said he is going “increasing­ly deaf ” but adds that he “finds it quite liberating”.

The Monty Python legend, 78, said: “I smile and nod and point at my ears and am released from taking notice of all the rubbish directed at me.”

Cleese and his wife Jennifer Wade, 47, are set to quit the UK this autumn for the Caribbean island of Nevis after he said he was horrified at the Brexit vote.

He has put his £2.7 million, five-bedroom home in Bath and his onebedroom flat in central London up for sale.

Speaking recently he said he felt hated by the “Facebook generation”.

He also branded US President Donald Trump as “the greatest a***hole in the world”.
