Joe Marler, the former England rugby star, recently spilled the beans on his earnings from “The Celebrity Traitors” show. Contrary to popular belief that he was paid £40,000, Marler clarified he actually received £30,000. Despite not winning, Marler was a standout on the show, impressing fans with his investigative skills and unique personality.
Appearing alongside other celebrities last year, Marler was part of the gripping final episode but didn’t manage to unmask Alan Carr as the game’s ultimate Traitor. While fellow contestants were rumoured to have pocketed equal amounts, Marler shrugged off any concerns, delighted with his £30k payout for participating, whether contestants stayed for two days or the entire three weeks.
His time on the show has opened new opportunities, including his podcast, “Joe Marler Will See You Now,” where he humorously hosts famous guests for playful analysis. With a sporting career said to have earned him around £4m, Marler moves seamlessly from rugby fields to media stardom, winning hearts and gathering fans post-retirement.
