Gorka Marquez left Gemma Atkinson taken aback after making a blunt bedroom suggestion during a discussion about their fitness levels.
The moment unfolded on their joint podcast Lost In Translation, as the couple answered a listener who wanted to know which of them was fitter.
Gemma conceded that Gorka was in better shape, pointing out that he is a professional dancer. However, she argued that she was more flexible because she stretches every day.
That was when Gorka steered the conversation in a rather different direction.
Gorka Marquez asks racy question to Gemma Atkinson
The Strictly star winked and said: “I stretch her out. Can I pipe you tonight?”
Gasping at the question, Gemma replied: “Did you just genuinely ask me publicly if you can pipe me tonight?”
The word Gorka used is slang for having sex. Gemma then revealed it was not the first time he had asked her the same question so matter-of-factly.
She recalled an occasion years earlier when Gorka was preparing to go out and asked whether it was “pipe or no pipe?” Gemma explained that her answer would apparently determine whether he came home that night.
Gorka continued the innuendo as Gemma attempted to return to the original subject and insisted she was the more flexible of the pair.
Couple clash over their kitchen
Their podcast conversations have also offered a glimpse into the couple’s less racy domestic disagreements.
During another discussion about tidiness, Gemma explained that she had replaced their smashed hob while Gorka was away for six weeks. However, when he returned, he reportedly noticed the arrangement of the pans beneath it rather than the new appliance.
Gorka defended his particular system, explaining that it made the pans easier to reach. He also said certain pans were reserved for specific meals, including a large one he uses to cook rice for paella.
Gemma joked that she had allowed their children to play with dough in that pan, before quickly admitting that she was teasing him.
The couple, who are parents to Mia and Thiago, then debated why kitchen utensils had ended up in the playroom. Gemma said the children wanted to play kitchens, while Gorka argued they should use toys rather than the family’s cooking equipment.
