The couple started dating in 2014 and married in 2018.

And they have launched an online series called Locked Down with Hask and Madeley which Haskell said his wife wanted no part of.

Captioning the first episode, 35-year-old Haskell wrote: “I have given in and become a vlogger, which I can only apologise for.

“Here is episode one of Locked Up. Poor @madeleychloe had no choice and is now an unwilling star of her own documentary.”

But she seemed to grow into it as one of the latest clips shows Haskell – who is now signed to MMA brand Bellator – bicep curling the 32-year-old before thrusting her above his head.

Later footage shows Madeley – daughter of famous TV couple Richard and Judy – on her husband’s shoulders as he does squats.

But it was not all work and no play for Haskell who also hosted his own parties on Instagram Live which he DJed himself.

The videos show the ex-Wasps flanker in front of an impressive set of decks banging out the tunes.

James and Chloe – who is a presenter and fitness expert – both keep in good physical condition but allowed themselves when episode three of Locked Up shows Chloe walk into shot with a stack of Domino’s pizza boxes.

Haskell – who has 517,000 Insta followers – can be seen pointing at his wife and saying: “Shame! Unhealthy shame!”

Madeley has 239k and regularly posts about her fitness work.
