England rugby star Joe Marler dons a yellow gown as he dresses up as Disney princess Belle
ENGLAND star Joe Marler is the belle of the rugby ball dressed up like a Disney princess.
The Harlequins prop wore a bright yellow gown like Belle from Beauty and the Beast.
He posted the snap on Instagram, taken for a birthday party for one of his children, and wrote: “Felt cute…… might delete later.”
One fan wrote: “This is what a great father looks like.
“Your daughter will look back at this time and be moved to tears knowing what lengths you’ll go to make her day special.”
Marler, 30, withdrew from the Six Nations squad last week for personal reasons.
The prop said he needs to spend more time helping with his young family.
Marler also quit in 2018 before making a u-turn to play at the 2019 World Cup.

He also pulled out of England’s tour to Australia in 2016 due to personal reasons.
Speaking on Twitter, he said: “Always grateful for the opportunity so not an easy decision, but want to do right by my family in these crazy times and won’t be meeting up with the squad for this tournament.
“Look forward to watching the team rip in. Go well.”
