Speaking to The Sun about his relationship, the Celebrity Big Brother winner explained: “Following reports about Dan and I spending time apart, I feel I have to speak out – as the way it is being reported is unfair.

In 2017, Rylan spoke about his relationship with Dan in an honest chat with BUILD series LDN where he confessed that he and Dan loved each other, but they argued all the time.

He said candidly: “I hate when you see all these people on TV and they’re like ‘I love my husband, he’s so amazing, he’s my soul mate, he’s my best friend’, it’s like shut up, are you joking?
