Mark Wright's Loose Women appearance has come under fire from some viewers after he was jokingly asked about 'getting naked' seconds into taking his seat on the panel. The former The Only Way is Essex star was on the ITV show on Thursday (April 13) to chat about his training for the upcoming London Marathon.
Mark, who recently completed the London Landmarks half marathon, will be facing the challenge next week alongside his brother, Josh, and their dad, Mark Snr. As he took his seat alongside Kaye Adams, Coleen Noleen, Sunetra Sarker and Jane Moore, the 36-year-old talked about how "tight" he was feeling due to training.
"Ah maybe you just need to get naked then," Kaye quipped as she made referenced the former topic of conversation which was based around Channel 4's new show, Naked Education, which is based off of its reality series Naked Attraction. Mark then joked: "That was in the changing rooms ten minutes ago, you missed it."

Before Coleen cheekily replied: "That's what he thinks." The singer and presenter then cheekily asked him: "What gym is that?" as she hinted she'd love to see the TV star without his clothes on after he said he is so used to a football changing room environment that he has "no fear" of stripping off around his pals.
But as the quizzing moved on to his plush abode with Michelle Keegan and what he thinks is their secret to a happy marriage, Loose Women viewers appeared unimpressed. @Gina63290649 said: "Just listened to the interview with Mark Wright. how he blow drys his hair and how he cleans his house! Riveting it was not... It was so awkward on both sides..."
@tashatonka posted: "Very awkward interview with Mark. If the Loose Men had done similar with a woman, there would be outrage." @Sue81073740 complained: "Mostly love your show but sometimes I think the comments the panel make about male guests are not on. We would not want similar comments made about women.....i.e. comments about Mark and not wearing a towel etc." @pshcgower added: "I agree, just what I thought. If men spoke to women like that! I found it uncomfortable."
It comes after Mark appeared in great shape as he posed in a small pair of black Calvin Klein boxers. Heading to a gym and spa in Cheshire, the ex-reality star took his followers along with him for his training rehab which saw him enjoy time in the sauna and a dip in the swimming pool before embarking on a cryotherapy treatment.
The could be seen entering the freezing chamber and looked thrilled when the doors opened after enduring a very cold temperature of minus 129 degrees as he flashed his impressive abs and tensed his muscles for the camera before moving on to a deep sports massage.
