An unusual thief “mugged” a funny moment for Ryan Clark when he was forced to make an awkward phone call to the police while returning to a friend’s house in Romford.
Rylan Clark has shared a hilarious anecdote about the time he was “mugged by a fox”, which led to an awkward phone call with the police. The amusing tale unfolded during his Radio 2 show, Rylan On Saturday, after a colleague recounted her own encounter with a squirrel.
The former X Factor contestant and Eurovision star revealed that he had been “mugged by a fox” while walking back from Romford to a friend’s house. In a conversation on air, he described how he had spotted the fox on a wall while he was holding his wallet in his hand.
He recalled, “And as I believed I had seen this fox.” You know that you typically just want to kick the fox out of the house? Getcha ! So I stamped my foot, and this fox looked at me as it slowly walked down the wall.
And I was obviously drinking a few drinks, and I was like, “Oh, this isn’t happening.” It did, however, pounce. I’ve jumped, dropped my wallet, and it’s been traveling down the road and stealing my wallet!
After the bizarre incident, Rylan then had to report the theft to his card company. However, they required a crime reference number since he had reported his card as stolen.
Yet, in a comical twist, he then had to call the police to report his unusual mugging. When asked why he needed a crime reference number, he explained that he had been “mugged”, leading to further questions about the identity of the perpetrator.
He responded, “Oh, a fox, and I could just hear them all laughing,” I said. Could you please describe them, they asked. I said, “Bussy, ginger.” Yes, the crime reference number is still with me.
Meanwhile, the beloved broadcaster recently branded his mum, Linda, a “walking disaster” during a live show after she revealed how she’d hurt her arms whilst at home.
During a telephone chat live on his programme, Linda explained to the audience that she’d been “looking in the ottoman” when the “lid came down”, with Rylan noting that she’d cut her arm in the process.
Linda responded, “Oh, it did hurt,” before saying, “If it’s not one thing, it’s another, isn’t it?”
Rylan responded, “That’s why you’re like a walking disaster right now,” to which Linda agreed.
However, just weeks earlier, Rylan had disclosed that Linda wouldn’t feature on his programme as she’d been rushed to hospital. He informed his followers on Instagram that “Mummy Linda isn’t well sadly”.
