Dave Hughes’s UK and Ireland jaunt has been action-packed.
The 54-year-old comedian has already nearly come to blows at Wimbledon and even snagged an invite to Spice Girl Mel B’s star-studded London wedding.
Now, Hughesy has revealed that he was on a tour bus in Dublin, Ireland when the guide seemingly thought he was harassing his wife, Holly Hughes.
The usually jovial radio star revealed his utter disbelief in an Instagram video on Thursday.
‘Get on the bus, sitting beside my wife and the tour guide comes up to us and says, “I’ll get this guy to move.” To my wife, about me!’ he exclaimed.

‘She said, “That’s my husband”,’ Dave continued.
‘What the f**k? He thought I was a sex pest!’
Hughesy, clearly still fuming, captioned the video: ‘I shoulda headbutted this Irish tour guide. I’ve never been so offended.’
One fan perfectly summed up Hughesy’s dramatic tour, commenting, ‘Gosh @dhughesy you are really showing all your charms over there.’
Dave Hughes and his wife, Holly, have been married for 18 and the couple share three daughters.
The couple met in 2002 in a bar in Melbourne when Dave was hosting a radio show.
This latest misadventure follows hot on the heels of the couple’s surprise appearance at Mel B’s nuptials at the historic St. Paul’s Cathedral, where they rubbed shoulders with A-listers like Emma Bunton and Cara Delevingne.
Hughsey attended the lavish ceremony having formed a friendship with Mel B while filming The Masked Singer Australia.

‘Holly and I had a fantastic time at Mel and Rory’s wedding at St Paul’s Cathedral Saturday,’ he captioned the post.
‘Got to know both of them on Masked Singer and was stoked to watch them tie the knot. All class day celebrating an all class couple. A great time had by all.’
But speaking exclusively to Daily Mail Australia, Hughes revealed there were a few unexpected moments inside the ceremony that didn’t make it to social media.
‘Mel was half an hour late,’ he said. ‘I was slightly concerned Rory was gonna be left at the aisle in his kilt – no undies and no bride. But she turned up!’
He added, ‘Mel’s little dog was entrusted to bring the ring down the aisle but she got lost and had to be chased around the chapel. Funny moment!’
Guests were then transported to a glamorous reception at The Shard in vintage double-decker buses, where Spice Girl Emma Bunton and comedian Alan Carr mingled with family and close friends.
‘There were thousands of people waiting outside the church – heaps of paparazzi. They didn’t take any pics of me. Hurtful,’ he joked.
‘Emma Bunton is a lovely person. Alan Carr was a good laugh and loved Holly.’
