The Chase's Mark Labbett has spoken out for the first time after going public with his new TV presenter girlfriend Hayley Palmer. Nicknamed 'The Beast' on the ITV quiz show, he was previously married to his second cousin, with whom he has a child.
Speaking to Mirror, Mark, 57, was asked if he spends time doing quizzes with his new TV presenter girlfriend. He replied: "I'm on the road so much, plus the little matter of a six-year-old boy that I co-parent with, so I try to spend as much time as I can with him.
"I'm going out to film in America next month, and I'm already planning what I'm doing in July and August with Katie to see what weeks work." But according to the publication, a source previously confirmed it's "early days" for the Mark and Hayley, but they are having a "lot of fun together".
