Rylan Clark and Rob Rinder address relationship rumours
Following the success of their BBC travel show together, Rylan Clark has revealed he's reunited with his "work husband" Rob Rinder. The two have been at the centre of plenty speculation about whether they could be more than friends, but have always insisted they are just close pals.
On Friday afternoon, the This Morning star, 35, took to his Instagram to tell his 2.2 million followers that he had reunited with Rob, 46, but did not mention what they were up to.
He shared a picture of the pair on his stories as the two beamed from ear to ear in the sweet selfie. Rylan wrote: "With the work husband," as he tagged his close friend.
Rylan and Rob's three part-series saw them touring Italy, following in the footsteps of poet Lord Byron on the 200th anniversary of his death. Ahead of the first episode airing, Rylan took to X, formerly known as Twitter, to share his excitement.
He penned: "Tonight our new show starts at 9pm on BBC Two and iPlayer. It was so special. This man has become family to me because of this experience. It really is a show like no other and we're so proud of it. Hope you enjoy."

Rob didn't do anything to dispel the romance rumours as he responded: "Friendship may and often does, grow into love.' Byron .. See you alongside him 9pm tonight @BBCTwo."
Rylan and Rob sparked romance speculation last month when they arrived together on the BAFTA TV Awards red carpet.
Taking to social media to set the record straight, Rylan tweeted: “The answer is no. I'm not dating Rob Rinder, he's one of my closest friends. Next time, tweet me.”
Opening up about his divorce on the BBC show, Rylan admitted to his friend that he’d experienced a breakdown.

“I sunk,” he told the Judge Rinder star. “I tried to end it. Tried to finish myself off.
“I went down to nine stone and I’m 6ft 4in, Rob… I had a breakdown. I was in a really bad way.” However, Rob and Rylan’s Grand Tour has apparently helped to ease the strain of the healing process.
“I have never felt more free than on this trip,” the latter admitted. “I felt exactly the same,” said Rob.
Rylan has opened up about his bond with Rob before, telling the Sunday Times: "We do, we love each other. Like a married couple: we row all the time and don't have sex."
