A TikTok video has emerged of singer and YouTuber LadBaby allegedly grabbing an unknown woman's bum in a nightclub. The married man, whose real name is Mark Ian Hoyle, was reportedly filmed feeling up a woman as they partied, while his wife Roxanne was nowhere to be seen, the Mirror reports.
In the video, which has been widely shared after appearing on TikTok, a man, believed to be LadBaby, sits on a nightclub stool as a blonde woman is standing in front of him, who he then begins to hug and touch. He then places his hands on her thighs and bottom, before looking at the camera and continuing to sip his drink.
The woman then walks away, putting her phone into her pocket. There is no suggesting that the touching was non-consensual. The video has now been deleted from TikTok for violating its content terms, according to the Mail Online - but it has been shared on various other TikTok accounts and social media sites since.
It's unknown when the video took place, and while some have suggested that Mark is the man in the grainy clip, others claim it's just a lookalike. Mark's representatives have been contacted by the Mirror for comment.
The couple have two children together and his wife regularly appears in his YouTube videos, calling herself LadBabyMum online. They've hit the top spot in the Christmas charts every year since September 2018 with their comedy songs, which raise money for the foodbank charity the Trussell Trust.
And the couple are breaking into the world of TV, as Roxanne has presented segments on Lorraine.
As Roxy posted a montage of her presenting highlights from her week on the ITV daytime show, followers praised the budding star as one said: "Aww Rox you were AMAZING! Need to see you presenting even more, you’re a natural! Xxx".
Another added: "You are destined to be a presenter".
Meanwhile there have been rumours that Mark will appear on this year's I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here!
Bookies William Hill have LadBaby as their fourth favourite star to take part in the ITV challenge show, which is set to return to Australia this year.
Tony Kenny, head of sponsorship PR at William Hill, told Plymouth Live: "Mark Hoyle aka LadBaby has won the nation’s heart over the past few years with his sausage roll-fueled fun. There’s no doubt that he would be a character in the camp and during the challenges.
"It would be great to see someone so dedicated to raising funds for good causes, just by being silly, enter the Jungle this year. And he could be out just in time to cinch a fifth Christmas No.1!"
In 2020, Mark was rumoured to be heading into Gwrych Castle in north Wales. But he shut down the claims as he said at the time: "No one’s phoned me. Clearly I’m not in Wales! So it’s not happening, I’m not doing it."
