Inconclusive — not enough public evidence to rate.
“He was confirmed when he was 13.”
Reasoning & Evidence09 Jul 2026
The only public evidence I found is Farage’s own 2 December 2011 interview in *High Profiles*, where he says he “did get confirmed when I was 13.” That supports the claim only as a self-report; it does not independently verify that the confirmation actually happened. I could not find a public record or other independent source confirming the rite itself, so the claim remains unverified.

From article
Well… I did get confirmed when I was 13 – that was a voluntary thing – but I think by the time I was 18 I was pretty much a non-believer.
I think – funny, isn’t it? – that belief is one of those things that can wax and wane during your life. I have thought a bit more about God since the [plane crash in 2010].4On 6 May 2010, he was a passenger in a two-seater aircraft that was towing a Ukip banner. He and the pilot were badly injured when it crashed in a field. A bit more. A bit more.
