Former Outnumbered child star Daniel Roche has daringly posed with a stash of ‘drugs’ while holidaying in Southeast Asia.

The 23-year-old actor, who played Ben in the BBC comedy from the age of seven, held up zip-locked bags of what appeared to be marijuana in a recent post shared on Instagram.

The word ‘kush’, which is a strain of cannabis, was written in black marker on one of the sachets.

Captioning the photograph, which was posted alongside a carousel of other snaps from his trip, Daniel wrote: ‘No case in the Golden Triangle 🌷’

The post comes five years after Daniel was filmed chanting ‘ketamine’ at the music festival BoomTown Fair in Winchester alongside a bunch of other revellers.

While there was no suggestion that the actor was using drugs at the event, he was seen chanting the name of the Class B drug in a video that was leaked online.

Daniel joined Outnumbered in 2007 and remained a member of the cast until the show went off air in 2014.

Last July, he reunited with his fellow Outnumbered co-stars Ramona Marquez and Tyger Drew-Honey.

All three actors, who were just children on the show, are in their 20s now and caught up for drinks.

Tyger shared a snap of the trio on Instagram, with the caption: ‘Family. #Grateful.’

The not-so young actors starred alongside Hugh Dennis as dad Pete and Claire Skinner as mum Sue, who are now in a relationship after meeting on the show.

Metro.co.uk has contacted Daniel’s rep for comment.
