Haskell, a former England rugby international, made the allegations during an interview with The Times. He did not name the player involved but described him as "one of the most high-profile, squeaky-clean rugby guys in the world."
Haskell claimed that the incident occurred when he and Madeley were on holiday in Portugal. He said that the player approached Madeley and made an inappropriate proposal.
