Joe Marler Expresses Gratitude Joining Celebrity Traitors Cast

Joe Marler, the former England rugby player, has transitioned into television by joining the latest season of the BBC One game show The Celebrity Traitors, where he is one of 19 celebrity contestants. Marler, who retired from professional rugby a year ago after earning 95 caps for England and winning three Six Nations Championships, credits his rugby career for providing the platform to be invited onto the show. He enjoys his role on the program and has received positive public recognition, often being identified by his distinctive appearance and asked how he secured a spot among the other celebrities. Alongside his TV debut, Marler has developed a strong interest in padel, a racket sport, which he has pursued since retiring from rugby. He has expressed appreciation for the opportunity to engage with a broader audience through the show and enjoys watching the episodes to understand different perspectives of the game. Public and fan response to his participation has been overwhelmingly positive, and he continues to enjoy sharing his experiences both on and off the field.
