Rylan Clark left his pal Rob Rinder red-faced after he made an X-rated comment about the TV judge during a joint interview to promote their new show, Rob and Rylan’s Passage To India

Television personality Rob Rinder has clarified matters with his co-presenter and friend Rylan Clark following a cheeky remark made during a recent joint interview.

Rob, 47, and Rylan, 36, were being quizzed about their new show, ‘ Rob and Rylan’s Passage To India’, when they were asked whether there was one thing they’d always wanted to know about each other.

Speaking to the Radio Times’ YouTube channel, Rylan declared: “We ask everything. I know everything about that man, every measurement, every orifice.”

Taken aback by the response, Rob swiftly responded: “He means that in a figurative way, he doesn’t mean that literally just to be clear. He’s never explored there”. Rylan then quickly added: “No, not personally. I’ve seen them though”.

Rylan’s cheeky observation follows ongoing rumours that the duo are more than friends, but the claims have been dismissed by both whilst they have highlighted their solid friendship, reports the Manchester Evening News.

Earlier this year, Rylan spoke about how their bond had developed since they first worked together on Rob and Rylan’s Grand Tour.

He revealed to Bella: “We went into Grand Tour as acquaintances and left as friends. We’ve gone into A Passage to India as best friends and left as best friends.

“Much as I love him, Rob isn’t my boyfriend. I love him too much to marry him.” Rylan’s remarks come after he decided to make his romance with Kennedy Bates public, as the couple made their debut appearance together at BBC Radio 2 In The Park in Chelmsford.

Discussing the fresh relationship with the Sun, one witness revealed:” Rylan and his new man looked seriously in love, they were having a great time together in the VIP. There was a lot of PDA and laughter and jokes among them.

“At one point, Rylan playfully smacked Kennedy on the bum while his boyfriend waited in the food truck. Kendall and Linda’s mother, Linda, also spoke to Rylan, and it’s obvious that the family has accepted him.

Rylan had previously confessed to no longer being single on his BBC Radio 2 show when he revealed: “I might have said that I’m…it feels weird saying it on the radio!”

With contributors like renowned documentary maker Louis Theroux and a host of guests, Rylan has been presenting a podcast called “How To Be In Love” for the past few months.

Sharon Watts’ portrayal in EastEnders, portrayed by Letitia Dean, has shown off her impressive weight loss in a new EastEnders trailer ahead of the new episodes airing next week.

EastEnders star Letitia Dean has showed off her impressive weight loss in a new teaser episode for the BBC soap opera.

The 57-year-old actress, who portrays Sharon Watts, will be back in Walford tomorrow – months after she left following the death of Martin Fowler. But a teaser episode shows her reaction as she spots Zoe Slater (played by Michelle Ryan) for the first time since her return.

In the clip, Letitia can be seen wearing a pair of figure-hugging black leggings and a top, revealing her weight loss. After the clip was shared by the official EastEnders account on Instagram, many fans congratulated the actress on her new look.

One person praised “she looks incredible,” while another referred to “welcome home icon”! “Sharon is back,” a third person said. Letitia Dean returning to EastEnders is welcome. “The Queen returns” has one more addition.

Letitia, who has been a regular on and off the soap since the very first episode first aired in 1985, has openly discussed her battle with body image and yo-yo weight over the years, and has previously revealed how cruel trolls had targeted her. I received a lot of bad ole’ things for my character. On the spin-off series Secrets from the Square, she said, “She’s too fat, the other actors complain they can’t fit on the same set with her.”

She also revealed that constant criticism impairs her self-assurance and led to her having her breasts removed as a teenager. Letitia acknowledged that her decision was influenced by vile remarks, even though there were also medical reasons for her choice.

Backache was also a factor in that choice, she explained to Hello! in October 2001. However, I felt much less confident in myself and much more focused on my appearance. The attention to my appearance occasionally bothers me, just like it does to all women, doesn’t it? – but those things are still in perspective today.

After reprising her role as Sharon from 2001-2006, Letitia left the soap and appeared in Strictly Come Dancing a year later, helping her get fit. The BBC personality, who placed fourth in the competition alongside dancer partner Darren Bennett, claimed it was her new way of life.

She explained to Closer, “It all began with Strictly Come Dancing because I was feeling great by the end of the set and the live performance.” However, I wanted to change my figure because I was so sick of doing extreme dieting and losing weight.

“I only had enough when I woke up one morning.” My weight had yo-yoed up and down for years and years, as long as I can recall. I’d follow traditional diets like Atkins, or I’d stick to eggs. It wouldn’t be long until she “slipped back into my old ways and put it all on again,” according to Letitia, who claimed that while she could “drop a stone” in a few weeks “on the extreme diets, she would not be able to” lose a stone on her own.

However, the actress dropped two stone when she appeared on High School Musical in 2008. By increasing her exercise and choosing healthier meals, she revealed that she had lost weight in the “good old fashioned way.”

I ever since changed my size from 14 to 10, and I never look back. She shared her first workout with me last year, and since then, I’ve fallen in love with it. Running and boxing are now my two favorite pastimes. I danced and exercised, not starving myself, or following some crazy fad diet, so I lost weight the good old-fashioned way.

Harry Styles, 31, ran the Tokyo Marathon just months later, and under a false name, ran the Berlin Marathon on Sunday. His time had greatly improved.

Harry Styles left his fans stunned as he ran the Berlin Marathon and broke his personal best after entering the race under a false name.

The former One Direction star was among 50,000 runners who took to the streets of the German capital on Sunday – and completed the 26.2 mile race in just under three hours. But to keep a low profile, Harry, 31, signed up for the marathon with a different name – Sted Sarandos.

He ran back in March at the Tokyo Marathon in 3:24:07, which was a significant improvement over his time of 3:24:07, which he had previously crossed the finish line. To prevent his hair from falling out of his face, Harry wore a headband and sunglasses. The winner of the race finished in 2:02:16.

The event’s organisers have confirmed Harry took part in the marathon – and fans have congratulated the Watermelon Sugar singer. “He ran past me,” said one on Reddit, while another praised the pop star saying, “Sub 3 hours is a brilliant time for an amateur runner.”

This is quick, according to another author. He is a very strong runner. One more phrased, “I’m all for celebrities having fun with their regular people’s hobbies.” That’s an amazing time, another fan said, “OMG! Way to go Harry, “”!

Another commentator said, “I don’t know the sport enough to make a comment about the time, but 25 minutes of improvement sounds impressive.” Another person added, “This is a very, very good time in 2 hours and 59 minutes.” In that short amount of time, only a small percentage of people can complete a marathon.

If you compare him to a professional or someone who works in the running industry, you’ll see that he’s a little slower than them, but those professionals consistently run 100 miles per week. I’m sure Harry doesn’t have as much free time for running as much as he would like, so kudos to him.

It’s reported that this is the real deal after Harry and Zo Kravitz have been spotted in a public photo. It’s been speculated that the relationship might be used as a publicity stunt for the American actress to promote her most recent film and the British singer to promote his upcoming music. According to a source, the majority of people are unaware that they have known each other for years.

They continued, noting that their relationship doesn’t appear to be moving at all. Because of their friendship, they feel “super comfortable” with one another.

A source told The Sun that Harry is a very private man. He has dated many people, but it’s not always so public. Harry is a master at keeping things under wraps if he so desired. He has a long history in the field and is aware of how his loyal following reacts.

“He doesn’t take introducing the world to a new girlfriend lightly. He has thought long and hard about it but he’s prepared for the backlash because he thinks Zoe is the real deal.” The source added that the romance isn’t a brief fling.

Big Brother winner Jordan Sangha has opened up about the tumultuous romance he and his roommate Henry Southan have had, admitting he wishes it had been a showmanship.

When Jordan Sangha walked into the Big Brother house last autumn, few expected the softly spoken barrister from Scunthorpe to leave as the winner – least of all Jordan himself.

But over six intense weeks on ITV’s revived reality juggernaut, Jordan not only won over the nation but also captured headlines for his blossoming romance with fellow housemate Henry Southan. Their “platonic with kisses” relationship became one of the defining storylines of the series, captivating fans with its warmth, awkwardness and unexpected tenderness.

Jordan recalls that harrowing time, saying, “I just think it was the first relationship, and yeah, I’m glad it happened,” almost a year later. Looking back on his romance with Henry, he says, “Life is too short for regrets.”

While their bond didn’t last outside the confines of the house, Jordan is philosophical about their eventual split. “It’s just about reflecting on the positives and not drawing too much from the negatives,” he explains. “There’s a lot of love there.”

The ending shocked fans who adored watching their slow-burning chemistry unfold on screen. Jordan insists, however, that it was real and not some elaborate camera-equipment stunt. Oh my goodness, I yearn for a show! He laughs, “but no, it was definitely not.” There is a lot of love there, they say. You never know what the future holds, don’t you? There is a learning curve to everything.

Jordan acknowledges that accepting a tendency to prioritize others before himself was a part of that learning curve. I believe I came to the realization that I should probably be a little more egotistical. Which sounds bad, but I’ve always given others more importance. I’ve learned that I also need to take my own path.

The romance with Henry may not have survived the transition from the surreal bubble of the Big Brother house to the glare of public life, but their connection was undeniable. The infamous hot tub kiss sealed the deal for many fans, though Jordan admits he was slow to recognise the spark himself. “For me, I’m quite slow when it comes to reading how people really feel. But it built up, and then one night it clicked—you’ve got the hot tub thing and, yeah. But I wish him all the best in life.”

While the romance was the heart of his storyline, Jordan’s unexpected popularity as a housemate propelled him to the £100,000 win. “I genuinely did not at all think I’d make it to the final,” he admits. “I thought I would be out week one. I thought everyone would have nominated me because I’m quite reserved. I don’t always want to go out there and say, ‘Oh hi, how are you?’ I can’t be a**ed. Honestly, I just can’t be bothered.”

Jordan’s dry wit, sharp one-liners, and refusal to play the game in a conventional manner were met with adulation from viewers despite his self-deprecation. He nods, “Maybe it was authenticity.” “I don’t have the wittiest thoughts. However, perhaps people liked me for who I am.

He claims that this authenticity was a natural outcome of his initial casting, as he never anticipated. Before entering the home, Jordan, a junior barrister, joked incessantly. As a joke, I literally filled out the application form. I responded with a question about TikTok, saying I can’t stand it. It’s a horrible, offensive app. You can profit from that, so I now have it.

Life after victory has been a dizzying adjustment. Jordan, who describes himself as introverted, suddenly found himself on red carpets and at showbiz events, including the premiere of Downton Abbey, the very series he credits with shaping his now-famous accent. “It was an absolute b***dy whirlwind, but no regrets,” he reflects. “I’m so happy that things have happened in the way they have happened. My life is totally different.”

However, fame has drawbacks. It was more difficult to read the hateful comments than the praise when I came out, which is quite odd, isn’t it? because I anticipated missing week one. I was surprised that I had received the call in the first place.

The grim fish guts challenge, in which he and Chanelle dunked their heads into barrels in exchange for crisps, is where Jordan recalls his proudest Big Brother moment. “I would say that because it just showed me that I can do anything with my best efforts.”

However, eviction nights were the hardest times. For a few hours on Friday nights, he claims, you’re just walking around on edge because they infuse a lot of fake crowd noise into the house. You are obedient to other people, even if you’re not up. They advised us to just treat it like a pantomime, but they still could be yelling “Get ___ out!” and you’re constantly asking, “Do they chant my name?”

Despite the pressures, Jordan never once considered quitting. “I think I was one of the only people who never asked to leave. I thought it’s a unique experience—why would I want to walk out of it?”

After his successful career, Jordan may never be able to practice law again. “I don’t think I’ll be allowed to kiss you,” he said. He jokes that he is putting his experiences to writing and creating a sitcom as a result of his years of juggling his legal studies and working overnight at the supermarket. He claims that the idea of world divisions really interests him.

Jordan’s advice to future housemates is succinct as Big Brother celebrates its 25th anniversary. “Probably just get started,” she said. Get out and do it. Don’t try to be someone other than you are; people will see through that, especially in the modern social media era.

Would he host a second reality show? “Yes, if they asked,” I don’t want to jump out of a plane, but I do believe I can handle the snakes and spiders. That would never be possible for me. But I don’t care if I shove anything in my mouth. He exclaims grin. The headline should read “That.”
