The BBC Radio 2 star responded to some potential showbiz rumours.

Rylan Clark has joked he 'can confirm' what he and Rob Rinder haven't been up to lately as he responded to some potential showbiz rumours.

The BBC Radio 2 star took to his Instagram page with a screenshot of a story featured in the latest UK-based celebrity and pop music newsletter.

In the latest installment thee was talk about a TV duo's recent janut to a location out of the UK was "nearly detrailed" by some bad behaviour.

But making it clear it wasn't him and his pal Rob, Rylan shared the 'Big Questions' post and told his millions of followers: "Can confimr not me and @robrinder..."

It comes after they were recently given a major boost as they joined forces for their first-ever TV project last year. Fans have been quick to take the pair on as a new TV duo after they were first seen joining forces last year for their own BBC Two show, Rob and Rylan's Grand Tour.

The three-part series, which went down a storm with viewers, saw them visit some of Italy's greatest art treasures in destinations such as Venice, Florence and Rome as they followed in the footsteps of 19th-Century romantic poet Lord Byron and other Grand Tourists.

The success of the show has since seen them be commissioned for second series and towards the end of last year, Rob and Rylan wrapped up a trip to India.

It was in October that Rylan shared a beaming selfie of the pair and said: "So excited we’re back for season 2 and this time we’re off to INDIA. Bumped into each other yesterday and this is how excited we are. Thank you everyone that watched our show and we can’t wait until we get going for S2."

He then jokingly promised: "I’ll try not to kill him." And he didn't as it was in November that they returned to the UK from India with Rylan saying of the trip: "A month in India. What an experience. Coming next year to @bbc and @bbciplayer."

It was then towards the end of March that Rob and Rylan were given a boost as it was confirmed they have been nominated for a Bafta TV award ahead of the star-studded ceremony in May.

They have been named in the Factual Entertainment category and go up against In Vogue: The 90s (Vogue Studios, Disney+), Race Across The World (BBC One) and Stacey Solomon's Sort Your Life Out (BBC One) for the gong.

Sharing the news on Instagram, Rob said: "So @rylan said we’d either get cancelled or win a BAFTA. Proud of you my friend. Thanks to everyone who watched us and found joy. @bafta @bbcarts."

Rylan also shared a screenshot of the nominees for the category on X and Instagram and said: "Can’t believe I’m saying this, but we’re nominated for a @BAFTA. Thanks so much for watching [red heart emoji]."
