It happened during filming for the Channel 4 show last month.
A source said: “Mark was yawning a lot and drifted off briefly.
“It was a bit of an awkward moment.
“It’s safe to say there wasn’t much of a spark between them.”
Mark married his second cousin, Katie, in 2014, but the pair split in 2020.
He then started dating TV presenter Hayley Palmer, 43, in 2023, but they broke up after a year.
Speaking about Hayley last year, Mark told The Sun: “She’s a lovely lady and I was very lucky to date her for a year, and as I said: it’s me, I got old.
“There’s been no one since Hayley.
“I’m not saying there won’t be another one. But I’m certainly not looking.”
Speaking about his love life, he said: “I was single, not coincidentally, for a long, long time when I was a 29st maths teacher who knew it was quite hard to attract a partner then.
The Chase’s Beast Mark Labbett spotted on lunch date with stunning sports presenter – a year after bitter split with his ex
“So I’m quite comfortable without a partner.”
Asked about Mark’s sleepy date, his representative told The Sun: “If his date was as boring as you have suggested, I’m surprised he didn’t take a pillow with him!”
A Celebs Go Dating spokeswoman was approached for comment.
