The Chase star Mark Labbett has showed off his dramatic weight loss in a topless picture as he enjoys a day in the sun.

Professional quizzer Mark, 57, posed next to his stunning TV presenter girlfriend Hayley Palmer as they took a dip in a pool as part of her birthday celebrations.

The brainbox beamed as he cosied up to Hayley, 41, during a relaxing spa day. She captioned the photo: "Part of my birthday treat. Yes my birthday lasts a whole month."

Mark looked slimmer than ever as he donned a pair of swimming trunks after having lost an incredible 10 stone thanks to completely changing his lifestyle.

His appearance has changed dramatically over the years after being diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes in 2016. After cutting out sugar and exercising regularly, Mark said he's feeling fitter than ever and "really really wants" to strut his stuff on the dance floor on BBC's Strictly Come Dancing.

The ITV quiz master met Hayley after the pandemic following the breakdown of his marriage to wife, Katie in 2020 leaving him devastated. Yet he found happiness again after being introduced to Hayley at last year's National Television Awards.

Speaking about the novel way The Beast wooed her, the presenter said: “I got introduced to him and he was like, ‘Do you know what I’ve got?’. And then he whips out his Toby Carvery Gold Card.

“I was actually really impressed. I thought, ‘I haven’t seen this before.It totally worked. I was trying to steal it. We had a really good laugh.”

Agreeing the all-you-can-eat card worked a treat, Mark added: “I thought, ‘We’re getting on quite well here — let’s get the big guns out,'" reports The Sun.

Mark credits Hayley with giving him a new lease of life after he split with the mum of his son. The couple were married for six years after meeting on social media in 2010, and they later they discovered they were actually second cousins.

The only thing he can see being a problem in his new relationship is the distance between the couple. Hayley lives in Chelsea, London while Mark resides in Rotherham - 150 miles away.

Admitting the "mileage and motorway will get to you at some point", Mark revealed it's probably time he moved down to the capital because his work is there. Mark has been on The Chase since 2009 and is a huge hit with fans.
