After a year of dating, Hayley Palmer has announced that she and her ex-boyfriend, Mark Labbett - also known as 'The Beast' on the popular ITV quiz show, The Chase - have gone their separate ways. But this news wasn't just a simple break-up; it came with some shocking details.
Hayley revealed that Mark had ended their relationship in a brief, three-minute phone call, leaving her feeling heartbroken and blindsided. According to Hayley, Mark had told her that he didn't want to divorce his ex-wife, and that's why he couldn't continue their relationship. However, just a few days later, Hayley was seen attending the gala performance of Sister Act: The Musical in London, looking absolutely stunning and happy.
Sharing a photo from the event on social media, she wrote, "It felt really nice to get dressed up last night. Doing things that make me feel good! I love a musical! You can't beat a bit of Sister Act." It was clear that she was moving on from her relationship with Mark and focusing on herself.
In an interview with The Sun on Sunday, Hayley opened up about her break-up and how Mark had changed from the gentle giant she knew to someone who was cold and heartless. She revealed that they had even talked about their future together during an appearance on Loose Women, just days before he ended things.
She also shared that Mark had suggested they move in together and had even introduced her to his seven-year-old son from his previous marriage. But just a few days after Hayley asked for an update on his divorce, Mark ended their relationship over the phone, leaving her shocked and hurt.
Despite the hurtful way their relationship ended, Hayley is now calling it a "blessing in disguise" and focusing on herself. She has labelled Mark's actions as disrespectful and a low move, and is grateful to have moved on from someone who could treat her that way.
Hayley and Mark first met at the National Television Awards in 2022 and began dating in May of that year. Their relationship lasted for a year before coming to an abrupt end last month. Hayley announced their break-up on her Instagram stories, thanking her followers for their support and wishing Mark all the best for the future.
