Dr Zoe Williams left her fans in utter disbelief after she disclosed that she was once a Gladiator on the iconic TV show. The 44 year old graced the screen as Amazon in the latest iteration of the classic series aired on Sky. Zoe, who has become a familiar face on This Morning, had talked about her stint on Gladiators before, but it was a throwback photo shared in 2022 that really took some of her followers by surprise. One fan gushed: "Omg no way! ! Loved Gladiators!" Another chimed in with: "No way I loved watching this and didn’t even realise it was you x.".

Meanwhile, another commented: "Great photo i loved Gladiators but never knew this was you . Well done.". While studying at university, Zoe applied to compete on the Sky reboot of Gladiators. However, impressed by her, the Sky producers offered her a role as one of the Gladiators, bestowing upon her the name Amazon.

Zoe became known as the "green Gladiator", symbolising Sky's commitment to environmental campaigns and promoting eco-friendly living. She appeared in the show's second season, where she was portrayed as "Regal and Amazonian, nature's powerful force runs through her veins.".

Zoe, who has been romantically linked to James Crossley, also known as Hunter from the original Gladiators, shared her experiences with GP Online. Reflecting on her time on the show, she said: "As a child growing up in the 1990s, I watched the original Gladiators, so getting the opportunity to become one was incredible. It turns out that hitting people with giant cotton buds really is as much fun as it looks.".
