But, like many previous talents before him, Marc has been found guilty of a HEINOUS crime - writing a mean tweet about the show YEARS ago.
We know, absolutely dastardly.
According to The Sun, Marc, whose show is based around his two-year-old miracle daughter, Isabella, posted some tweets in 2012 and 2013 about Britain's Got Talent, targeting its founder and head judge, Simon Cowell.

Marc wrote in 2012: "This is the last I'll say I promise. #bgt is a mockery of entertainment. It's a joke. Simon is laughing at the deluded public. Do not vote!"

And in 2013, when Simon was attacked by an egg-thrower: "Musician chucking eggs at Simon. Wonder if it was truly random or a publicity stunt to detract from poor final?"
Marc has apologised for his tweets, and in a statement to The Sun said: "I have changed rather a lot in the last six years and the offhand tweets I made about Britain’s Got Talent many years ago in no way reflect my thoughts and feelings on the show now.
"I am a huge fan of the series and it has been a dream of mine to perform for the judges since before my daughter was born."
Marc added that the "careless" tweets were "made from his sofa", and he has now deleted them because he doesn't "feel that way" about the show.
He went on to say: "The outpouring of support I have received from the public since getting the golden buzzer has been overwhelming and I can’t thank Britain’s Got Talent and the public enough, I am very proud to be part of the show."
Aww, bless him! Let's give him a break.
