Rylan Clark's Rob Rinder update sends fans wild as he says 'I'll try'

by · Manchester Evening News

Rylan Clark has sent fans wild with his latest update alongside friend Rob Rinder. The pair had become firm pals over the years before fans got to see the dynamics of their friendship in their first TV show together earlier this year.

Rob and Rylan's Grand Tour aired earlier this year on BBC2 and saw the pair take viewers along to 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.

But while filming, Rob even sparked engagement rumours with Rylan following a cheeky social media post that left the latter having to explain they weren't a couple in the weeks and months to follow.

Now, Rylan has confirmed that he and Rob will be teaming up again for a new TV show following the success of their Italian adventure.

Taking to Instagram on Sunday (October 6), 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," which comes after Rylan recently revealed he'd likely "kill" Rob within days if they ever got married as he confirmed that their relationship is a "non-sexual" one, which the Radio 2 star joked has given them the status of an "old married couple".
