What did Joe Marler do that cause his wife to brand him a 'moron'?

Daisy labelled her husband a "moron" following the England star's 2023 controversy.

He sparked a mass brawl when he called a rival's cancer-battling mother a "f***ing w****".

His comment prompted a furious reaction from Bristol ace Jake Heenan during the Bears' 15-12 win at The Stoop on December 27.

The Bristol flanker could be heard saying on referee Karl Dickson's microphone: "Karl, Karl, my mum is in hospital."

Marler, 32, was slapped with a two-week ban by the RFU with a further four suspended after a disciplinary panel reviewed the footage.

He apologised on social media for his "p*** poor" remark and was said to have reached out to Heenan personally.

And now the 83-cap England man has explained himself on his - reiterating his regret at his words and the reaction from his own spouse Daisy.

Joe said: "Daisy turned round to me and she said, 'You're an idiot, aren't you? You're just a moron.'

"I said, 'What do you mean? I thought you were meant to defend me.'

"And she said, 'Why am I defending you? That's not even a funny attempt. Why don't you just stop doing it? Or, if you feel the need to do it, just don't bring family members into it. You never know what's going on in people's lives and it doesn't mean it's not going to affect other people.'

"I said, 'You're absolutely spot on.'"

Marler described his antics as "fake tough-guy stuff" and added: "We always have a choice - it's about what I can do to make this good for me moving forward."
