The presenter posted a photo of his Peloton spin bike, with a weight set next to it, thanking his trainer for the sweat session: "Olivia said I ‘crushed’ it, and who am I to argue? (Mind you, there were 40,000 other riders…) Thanks @oamato - you kicked my jet-lagged butt."

Fans were quick to comment, making jokes that he must have been faking how sweaty he was. One fan said: "How much water have you poured over your head for the sweat affect piers" followed by laughing emojis.
