CELEBRITY Traitors star Joe Marler struggled to answer a simple Sugababes question on The Wheel.
The former England rugby player, 35, has recently been appearing on screens in the BBC‘s celebrity spin-off of The Traitors.
But the star, who also appeared on Michael McIntyre‘s The Wheel last weekend, showed off his trivia skills, as he managed to ace a Sugababes question due to his love of noughties music.
During the game show, Michael asks: “Joe, you’re a big fan of pop music from the noughties, aren’t you?”
Joe sheepishly replied “Yes”, before he commits: “Sally, I want to do this for you.”
The pair were then asked who was in the original Sugababes lineup when they topped the charts with Freak Like Me in 2002.
Both Joe and contestant Sally went back and forth, but struggled to pin down the right answer.
The former rugby player even sang the tune to Sally, though his somewhat off-key vocals had viewers in hysterics.
He eventually encouraged her to pick Mutya, Keisha and Heidi, which is the correct answer.
His appearance on The Wheel comes after a tense round table on the BBC’s Celebrity Traitors.
He was joined by the likes of Sir Stephen Fry, Jonathan Ross and Kate Garraway – who is facing the axe after Thursday’s show.
This week, the former rugby player opened up about his home life on a podcast, admitting he “wouldn’t be here” without his wife Daisy.
Speaking on Jamie Laing‘s Great Company podcast, Joe reflected on Daisy’s support during a challenging time in his life.
The couple tied the knot in 2017 and have welcomed four children together.
Joe said: “I wouldn’t be in this world without her, like she’s everything.
“Like she’s incredible.”
He detailed feeling suicidal thoughts back in 2018 after a row with Daisy.
They butted heads after she became upset that Joe hadn’t swerved to avoid a squirrel on the road while returning from school drop-off.
Following therapy and taking antidepressants, Joe is working on his mental health and is in a ‘better head space’.
YOU’RE NOT ALONE
EVERY 90 minutes in the UK a life is lost to suicide
It doesn’t discriminate, touching the lives of people in every corner of society – from the homeless and unemployed to builders and doctors, reality stars and footballers.
It’s the biggest killer of people under the age of 35, more deadly than cancer and car crashes.
And men are three times more likely to take their own life than women.
Yet it’s rarely spoken of, a taboo that threatens to continue its deadly rampage unless we all stop and take notice, now.
That is why The Sun launched the You’re Not Alone campaign.
The aim is that by sharing practical advice, raising awareness and breaking down the barriers people face when talking about their mental health, we can all do our bit to help save lives.
Let’s all vow to ask for help when we need it, and listen out for others… You’re Not Alone.
If you, or anyone you know, needs help dealing with mental health problems, the following organisations provide support:
