Rylan Clark said he had a row with his co-star Rob Rinder while filming the latest series of their BAFTA-winning show. In their new travel documentary, the pair explore India’s rich culture, history, and diversity, and engage with various individuals who embody modern life there. Giving an insight into filming for the show, Rylan, 36, admitted his co-star got “so p****d off” with him. He explained: “When I got off the plane, I got bitten on the face by a mosquito and had a golf ball on the f*****g cheek. “It was not a great start. After four hours’ sleep, I was chucked into a tuk-tuk in the middle of, I can only describe it as a Wacky Races replay.” The presenter added to Heat Magazine: “It was a lot. When I say I dove into India head first, I dove into India head first.” After Rob confirmed that the situation was “real”, Rylan went on to say: “He got so p****d off with me. This isn’t normal for me! I could have lost an arm, it was crazy.” Reflecting on the incident, Rob said he ran “out of patience” and jokingly likened himself to a “benevolent headmistress of a school”. Despite their row however, Rylan said they remain the “best of friends”. In the same chat, he addressed the ongoing rumours about the pair being romantically involved with each other. Discussing the speculation, they highlighted reports about them being “engaged”, and also mentioned seeing fake wedding pictures of themselves. “I love him too much to marry him,” Rylan confessed. This comes after the This Morning star recently confirmed that he is in a new relationship – his first since his divorce from Dan Neal in 2021. Speaking on his How To Be In Love podcast last month, he confirmed he had quietly been seeing someone for several months. Rylan’s new man has since been revealed as Kennedy Bates, a funfair businessman. The pair are said to have become “inseparable” this summer, and have already met each other’s families. Speaking on his podcast, Rylan also confirmed that the couple want to have children. More recently, the pair were spotted at Radio 2 In The Park together last weekend, where Rylan performed several DJ sets. Pictures show the pair sitting together in the VIP area, with Rylan’s mum Linda also present. An onlooker told The Sun: “Rylan and his new man looked seriously in love, they were having a great time together in the VIP. “They were laughing and joking, and there was lots of PDA. At one point Rylan playfully smacked Kennedy on the bum when he headed off while his boyfriend stood in the queue for food. “Kennedy was also chatting to Rylan’s mum Linda, he’s clearly been accepted by the family.” Rob and Rylan’s Passage to India airs on BBC Two on Sunday 14th September at 9pm.
