Mark Labbett Says He’s No Longer Seeking Romance, Prefers Sky Sports Weekends

He casts the shift as part of a settled single routine following a new type 2 diabetes diagnosis, alongside major weight loss.

Overview

  • The 60-year-old quiz star says he is not bothered about having a girlfriend or sex and would rather spend weekends watching Sky Sports.
  • The disclosure follows his appearance on E4’s Celebs Go Dating, where he met beautician Deanne Perkins and was later seen lunching with her.
  • He says he is very happy living alone and enjoys the freedom of making plans without considering a partner.
  • Labbett confirms a recent type 2 diabetes diagnosis and says he has lost more than ten stone since the pandemic.
  • He has not taken Ozempic and says he would consider it only if advised by his specialist, as he continues long-running work on The Chase across multiple editions.
