The former rugby union star, 35, has won over a whole new audience beyond sport thanks to his bromance with comedian Joe Wilkinson<\/b>, his super-sleuthing, balletic bridge balancing and all-round wit.<\/p>\n
Speaking about his faithful nemesis on Traitors Uncloaked, traitor Jonathan Ross<\/b> said of Marler: “I think this show will do him a lot of good because people will see just how funny he is and how smart he is and how likeable he is.<\/p>\n
“And that was always there, but it was hidden behind that gruff man mountain exterior.”<\/p>\n
Along with Wilkinson, Marler was the architect of the epic Big Dog theory involving Ross and Fry.<\/p>\n
And rather than fly under the radar, Marler took the risk of spouting his theories openly, and was arguably the most bullish at the roundtables, even managing to ruffle Carr’s <\/b>feathers.<\/p>\n
“Joe Marler has undoubtedly become a breakout star of the show due to his authentic personality and deadpan humour,” says entertainment reporter Indigo Stafford.<\/p>\n
“He also seems to be one of the only faithfuls this season to actually have had a clue who the traitors might be, yet he cleverly managed to conceal how much of a threat he is to them in order to not get eliminated [until the very end].<\/p>\n
“I wouldn’t be surprised if we saw a huge career boost for him after he left the show.”<\/p>\n
Marler signed up with talent agency M+C Saatchi earlier this year, and there are already rumours that he is set for more mainstream TV opportunities, which Stafford says would “make sense”.<\/p>\n
“Having retired from his impressive England rugby career, he will be looking to move on to the next big thing – the world of showbiz,” she said.<\/p>\n
Meanwhile TV reporter Siobhan Synnot thinks Marler could be heading for next year’s Strictly. We can see him doing the Viennese Waltz already.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
