Rylan Clark shares huge relationship update and says 'I'm very happy'

BBC Radio 2 presenter Rylan Clark has revealed that he's "very happy" after revealing he has a new partner - and both he and his boyfriend are eager to start a family.

The former X Factor contestant split with his ex-husband Dan Neal in 2021 and the radio presenter's romantic life has been the subject of huge curiosity and rumours among his followers ever since.

He told documentary filmmaker Louis Theroux that he has found love once again during the most recent instalment of his Rylan: How to Be in Love podcast,

Rylan had been the one asking the questions until the tables until Louis turned the tables and switched the focus onto him, posing something that has been on fans' minds for quite some time.

Posing the question to Rylan, Louis enquired: "Am I right in thinking since starting this series, you've struck up a relationship?"

Rylan simply replied: "I have. At the time of recording, I'm very happy."

Louis continued by asking whether Rylan is looking to have children in the future, with the host responding: "Yeah. 100%. I want kids. He wants kids."

While he remained guarded and didn't elaborate further on who the new individual in his life might be, he did reveal how much his new podcast has assisted him in managing his fresh romance. He explained: "I've picked up quite a few tips. It's maybe where I've gone wrong in the past."

Rylan has previously opened up frankly about his marriage to Dan Neal and the reasons behind their relationship's breakdown.

The duo initially met when Rylan was presenting Big Brother's Bit on the Side in 2013, with Dan appearing as a contestant on the programme.

The couple revealed their engagement in 2014. They subsequently exchanged vows at a celebrity-packed wedding celebration a year later.

In his podcast's debut series, Rylan has dedicated each instalment to conversations with various famous faces and specialists as he embarks on a journey to "rediscover what love is".

Throughout multiple episodes, he chatted with personalities including Tasha Ghouri, Matt and Emma Willis, Calum Best and Stephen Fry, alongside professionals such as Dr Tara Swart and Philippa Perry.

Beyond his recent podcast project, Rylan has established himself as a regular voice on our radios in recent times.

Following his stint standing in for Zoe Ball on BBC Radio 2 in 2018, he assumed the role permanently when she transitioned to the breakfast programme in 2019. The programme is now titled Rylan on Saturday.
