Did you lose the rear seal in the wheel bearing? That's normally what it does. When's the last time you checked the wheel bearings?

Too much hair gel.   Musta dripped off while you were checking the tire pressure or something.   Hope you didn't get any on your booty shorts.

I guess I'll just clean it up and see if it keeps pushing it out.

My other boat trailer was doing that cause the brakes were dragging and heating up the bearings, not sure if yours has brakes or not

Is that a bearing buddy? How tight is that cap on the end? Is it cracked at all?
I know grease will seperate. The front and back of my wheels sometimes look like that.

The caps just snap on.
Can't say for sure nothing is broken but I highly doubt it.
