Personal Life

He currently resides in Fleetwood, and uses the nickname The Warrior for his matches, having used the nickname Av' It until late 2010. His younger brother Dale Newton is a former professional player, and his dad Colin is a high-level amateur player. With his close family all playing darts, he actually attributes his career to his cousin Leon, exclaiming "he used to visit every summer when we were little and teach me how to play, stand and throw correctly even though he was 5 years younger than me. I owe it all to him"

Newton and his partner Stacey have a son, Fraser Wesley, who was born in June 2011.

    Making the best of things is ... a damn poor way of dealing with them.... My whole life has been a series of escapes from that quicksand [ellipses in source].
