The Beast's exciting Down Under plans
Mark Lambett, better known as The Beast on The Chase Australia is living in a state of "pure happiness" with his girlfriend.
Months after going public, Mark and his partner, British presenter Hayley Palmer, are busy planning the next stage of their relationship.
The couple could be heading to Australian shores, as Palmer told 7News that it would be "a dream" to spend some quality time Down Under.
“I would love to come out to Australia. Mark and I have talked about it,” she said.
“I have been to Sydney and Manly Beach is my favourite,” she says, adding that the picturesque ferry ride from the city is part of the fun.
“So I really do hope to come out — that would be an absolute dream. I must put it on my vision board.”
Palmer admitted that part of her love of Australia comes from watching Home and Away, with the Channel 7 soap showcasing influencing her love of the country's sandy beaches.
“I am a huge Home and Away fan. Anyone will tell you that. I absolutely love it,” the presenter says.
A trip to Australia would be a welcome holiday for the couple, who have been doing long distance for most of their relationship.
Lambett has been in Australia filming the local version of The Chase game show, while Palmer has been working in her native England.
It is because of this that they have learned to embrace “long distance”, with Palmer convinced it is why their relationship “really works”.
“I think regarding the long distance, we both have our passions and dreams that we follow, so you have your own thing going on and then when you come back with your partner it is the cherry on top,” she says.
“It’s a lovely feeling when you get together."
“We’re both quite similar like that. We’re always busy and we come together and it’s pure happiness.”
