ALEX CORBISIERO played for England at a Rugby World Cup and spent many years dating Laura Woods.
The retired prop now hosts a top rugby podcast seven years after ending his career.
Corbisiero, who played for London Irish and Northampton Saints, made 31 appearances for England.
During his international career, he was a member of the side which reached the quarter-finals of the 2011 Rugby World Cup.
He also represented the British and Irish Lions during their victorious tour of Australia in 2013.
However, Corbisiero was forced to retire in 2016 after an injury plagued career.

Then in 2020, the rugby ace spoke frankly about his battle with testicular cancer, saying: "I'm not letting cancer defeat me".
He wasn't wrong, as since retiring, the 35-year-old has worked as a pundit as well as hosting the popular The Scrum Down podcast.
Corbisiero is also the ex-boyfriend of presenter Woods, with the pair having dated for nearly eight years.
The couple split due to "being in each other's pockets", with Woods revealing their break-up had been her decision.

"It was my decision – it was the right one and I've never regretted it," she explained.
"We'd lived in each other's pockets and breaking up with him felt like coming up for air.
"The next thing for us was probably marriage and having kids. And I do want that one day – I love being in love and I love kids.
"I've prioritised work because I love that too and my ambitions are important to me."
Woods has since revealed she has returned to dating following her split from Corbisiero.
She was even spotted on a secret date with Love Island star Adam Collard at the weekend.
The pair were seen looking cosy at a country pub in County Durham on Saturday night.
Corbisiero will be cheering on England during the Rugby World Cup in France this month.
