Mark Wright reveals bizarre nickname for Michelle Keegan and it's sickly sweet

Mark Wright has revealed his secret pet name for his wife Michelle Keegan.

The TOWIE hunk came clean about what he calls the beauty when they're on their own away from others' ears.

Heart Radio presenter Mark told all when being quizzed about the cute names they have for each other on his show.

He says he calls Michella 'treacle pant' - but only ever in private.

The reality star says he doesn't know where 'treacle pant' came from and instantly regretted spilling the couple's big secret.

Mark said: "Apparently the top names to call our partners are ‘babe’, I mean that’s standard. Also ‘sweetie’ - nah that’s not me, ‘honey bun’, ‘boo’, ‘handsome’, ‘princess’.

"I’ve thrown the odd princess out to my wife before I’m not going to lie. I sometimes call my wife treacle pant.

"I don’t know why, obviously you’ll be like ‘hello treacle’, but I put a ‘pant’ on the end, like treacle pants - but I take off the ‘s’, “treacle pant you want a cup of tea?”

"I can’t believe I just said that live on radio!"

Mark’s fans were bowled over by the affectionate glimpse into his private world.

He let his hair down on Sunday as he celebrate his dad's birthday with friends and family.

But he wasn't the only one letting fans in over the weekend live on air.

Last night Emma Bunton revealed she’s meeting up with the Spice Girls this week and divulged what the girls get up to.

After playing Who Do You Think You Are' she told listeners exactly why she picked that hit - but told them not to get too excited.

"I wanted to play that for you tonight as we’re all meeting up this week, yes so excited!" Emma said on her Sunday show.

"I always get excited to see them all, however anytime I say this to anyone they always think we’re there to talk about a new Spice Girls tour, or some new music or we’re all just going to have a big pillow fight.

"I’m so sorry to disappoint you, but none of that happens, we just sit around like any other group of girls, drinking tea, or maybe some bubbles, chatting about our kids, a little bit of gossip but we just absolutely love getting together, it’s so nice!”

Join Mark Wright on Heart, Saturday afternoons from 4pm – 7pm - with Emma on every Sunday 7pm-10pm
