Ross Clark: Prepare To Meet The Real Rylan
Rylan is one of the UK's most-loved presenters and a true household name. Rylan first emerged on our screens in September 2012 and in the ten years since then has become a one-of-a-kind national treasure.
He finished in fifth place on the ninth series of The X Factor in 2012, and the following year, he won the eleventh series of Celebrity Big Brother. He has gone on to present various television shows, including Big Brother's Bit on the Side, This Morning, The Xtra Factor, Up Late with Rylan, Strictly Come Dancing and Eurovision. He hosts a BBC Radio 2 show.
In 2022 he published his memoir: 'TEN: The decade that changed my future'.

💯 Rylan has described symptoms of depression ,suicidal feelings & the daily struggle towards recovery in such a candid way.. this really resonates with me. I'm doing really well atmo but spent 20 yrs in a real battle. Thanks for your honesty Rylan ❤❤❤.#understandingmentalhealthmatters
Ross is 100% bang on about depression. Not able to wash, watch TV, read, do anything. It's so hard to leave your safe space wherever that is. He is amazing and honest and so inspirational
My support worker sent me here because she saw it and said it reminded her so much of me. This is so spot on. I’ve been to the bottom and I’m on my way up. Learning to be alone is the hardest thing I’ve ever had to do

I have to say, Rylan wasn’t someone who I would have normally watched on these podcasts…but what a fascinating interview. It definitely changed my pre-conceived ideas on him. He came across as an intelligent, genuine person. Maybe more of these kind of guests wouldn’t be a bad idea 👍
He has always seemed like a nice person, but until watching this, I never realised how well articulated and self aware he is. Truly an inspiration.

I’ve been in a similar dark place and it’s true. I had to be so gentle with myself and would celebrate if I just got up and brushed my teeth or ate one small meal that day. Mental illness can be just as horrific as physical illnesses and sometimes they go hand in hand. Mental illness should always be taken seriously because if it’s not then at the worst it can result in the person taking their own life.

The longer this podcast goes on, the bigger the transition from Rylan to Ross. Thoroughly enjoyed this interview 🙏
Here I am watching this at home in Australia, an almost 60 year old woman relating to what Rylan has to say about his experiences with his mental health. I’ve subscribed because of the intelligent conversation today ❤ I especially loved the way he spoke about if you can only switch on the kettle it’s a step in the right direction 🥰 Having faced the trauma of surviving a major car crash, and the change in the way my body now has limitations has been a very long process of acceptance, and hearing Rylan talk about how he copes just confirms to me that I’m stronger mentally than I ever realised. Thanks to the KZread algorithm for putting your video on my list today 👌🏽🥰 I’m sharing it with my husband, as I’m sure he will relate to it too, and he’s a 74 year old. Ross/Rylan you are the real deal ❤

i'm in a similar spot to what Ross was in and it made me smile when he said just turn the kettle on because it is exactly what I needed to hear. sometimes, less is more - in the words of Charlie Mackesy
I met Ross very briefly in June last year he presented me an award, got to say couldn't of been any nicer to me
This was fab, to have him open up so much was so emotional, I'm so glad he's back in a good place now, he is such a nice guy 😊
Absolutely loved listening to this, Rylan your fab at what you do, Ross sounds like a lovely genuine guy too, I really hope you can tick the happiness box, in the very near future xx
What a great podcast. What a genuinely nice man Rylan/Ross is. Good luck to him.
I met Ross as Ross many years ago in an office..I have watched Ross become Rylan and he is now and was then a very kind respectful man. I still have his Demo Tape he gave me as a goodbye present..xx
I’m only at 23.58 minutes in but I have CPTSD, depression and anxiety from having a horrendous childhood and further abuse, gaslighting ect from my father in my early 20’s (I’m 30 now) listening to Ross on how he did his steps and how he progressed from there has really helped me personally just to know that doing the smallest of things are a step forward. I can’t do PTSD therapy because my brain goes into shut down mode and I start to get the horrible nightmares back but listening to Ross it’s definitely made me want to start talking to myself as a child and doing them little steps. I currently get huge anxiety when going into the shower so maybe if I scale it back it might help. Thank you Ross… I hope you get to see this just so you know you have helped someone out! ❤ xxx

@@Danny_kay that’s wonderful! And she sounds like a wonderful woman too ! I won’t say that you’re lucky bc i wud imagine you were attracted to her bc of her qualities and therefore well done you for finding the right partner for you and being I would also imagine the perfect partner for her too ( as much as any of us can be ofc) I worked in mental health for 12 years my children suffer with it & myself too and I grew up with a mother with manic depression ( but that was in the 70s) so I have huge sympathy and empathy for anyone who lives with anxiety especially and depression. I love that you say your children ‘saved’ you ( paraphrasing) I think I would agree with that for myself too and few of my friends also . You’re children will benefit from a father that speaks openly so don’t hold back we live in a changing world & that’s a good thing . Take care Danny 🙂
He absolutely nailed depression/anxiety/imposter syndrome for me. When I was working in a fabulous job I questioned why I was able to have this job and was I worthy. I was actually good at it and worked very hard, but I couldn’t understand how I could be so blessed. I did not feel worthy. And it does come down to you and getting to the point where YOU want something else. He’s so so right. Baby steps.
He is so likeable and he gave some of the best advice in this video. He will have helped a lot of people, including me. Best of luck to him. I like to see people with a good heart do well.
Best podcast that I’ve seen in a long time. Superb chat 👍🏼
The term national treasure get's thrown about a bit too much these days, and it's lost a little of it's gravitas - but there are some people who are TRULY national treasures and Rylan is one of those. I can't wait to watch this.
Great interview with a lovely guy. Much love to Rylan, good to hear he's in a better mindset.
“I have money in the bank babe, I’m fine” 😂
Just a lovely genuine guy through and through and that’s why we all love him so much ❤
Always been a fan of his. A lovely genuine guy. Very clever too. Ross you could help so many other people. Loved watching this & I will look out for other interviews from the two guys.
I worked with Rylan on a corporate event a few years ago and he was such a lovely and genuine fella . He was an absolute joy and very humble. I still consider him and Claudia Winkleman the best two celebs I've worked with . Glad he's doing well.
This is a fab interview.I love Rylan❤
I just cant fault Rylan , without exception , every time I see him interact with people he is compassionate and kind and funny and he deserves everything good that comes to him , such a great conversation , thank you Rylan for being so open X
So many things resonate and I concur, baby steps and being kind to yourself are so key in recovery. Once you have the ‘tools’ you can use them whenever you need them, even if you fall back a bit. Sit on the sofa, press the button, then take another tiny step!
Insightful episode. Respect to Rylan for sharing his story so honestly.
I adore Rylan/Ross, he has a beautiful soul. He reminds me so much of my Son, who is also an Artist. I see his inner strength now, you can only be strong when you are truthful & kind. I've followed him from the beginning & he has that special "It" that not many have. He's gorgeous thru & thru. 🤗
Thank you so much for this..Ross..You may have saved me from doing something. Thank you to this channel also, Bless you all x I'll continue to press the button xxxx
This came up in my recommendations, and I’m glad it did. Whether it was because of a higher power, or just KZread’s algorithm... it doesn’t matter as I really needed to hear this today. Depression can be a lifelong battle, and I can relate to what Rylan says. ❤️🙏🏻
Who would have ever thought Ryland would be such a success after his lack of singing ability on the X factor but obviously Ryland had somehting else,a stat quality that has enabled him to just go from success to success. I love Ryland,he just comes across as the most real and authentic person when you see him on TV and he makes you feel like you are in safe hands. He deserves all the success he has,he is reaally good at what he does,he has a real talent at communicating and presenting on TV and I think he is up there with some of the best TV personalities and presenters we've had. Hes a star,simple as that xx
What a genuine lovely man! Loved this episode!
He's explaining deep SEVERE depression .God bless you Rylan
Sounds like he lives his life by 'Change what you can't accept, and accept what you can't change'. Very down to earth, and the baby steps approach is solid advice. Thank you so much for this podcast.
I met Rylan in Ibiza before he became famous, he performed in a Take That tribute band. A really lovely guy.
Brilliant podcast. Ross/Rylan is more loved and respected than he/they will ever know. The Public can see through showbiz BS and know who the good genuine stars are. RR is one of those people that is truly seen as a national treasure, on merit x
just watching Rylan, OMG, he is so on point as regards being at your lowest, I will take on board everything he says and put the kettle on. Please if you can, thank him for me ❤
Ross made me cry when he said about the rock bottom period, and detailed that there is a real life, where we forget the smaller things, putting a kettle on. Even just the button itself. And all of that, because I saw that. I related to his dual personality, and I realise I used to have a Rylan and have been a Ross for some time, enough time in fact. This was exactly what I needed to hear and more. It's the sharing of our vulnerabilities that make us stronger, as well as our strengths. Because it's the roadmap to understanding ourselves and each other on a really fundamental and necessary way. I love these talk shows that are coming out now too. No longer is TV going to be just showmanship, it's going to be a whole arrangement of amazing and wonderful personalities, showing weakness and strength is the key to a human and exciting experience for all. People like Ross, are definitely going to help so many other people who are struggling to come to terms or figuring out who they are. It goes way further than sexuality, it's the pinnacle of who we are too that matters even more, if not, it's all that it is that matters... I'll paraphrase Rylan here, it's whatever you want it to be.
Really enjoyed this. Lovely to hear about Ross and Rylan. Nice to get to know him. Thank you.

Such a lovely person! I can relate so much of what he said. I suffer myself with similar issues, It does get better and it's okay to have good and bad days. After losing my best friend earlier this year to cancer, I have relapsed with things not always doing small tasks just like Ross said. Thank you for being so open and very well said all 👏 also what Ryan said about talking to yourself a therapist told me about that last year, Basically we all have that inner child and trauma from the past can bring that inner child and voice back like you are two different people. But it's apart of who you are you, You just have to keep telling that inner child you are okay and enough. Best wishes Ross 💚
Really enjoyed this I’m pleased it piped up on my phone now I’ve subscribed he’s a lovely bloke
What an absolutely FANTASTIC show. Great questions, honest answers and breakthroughs for me. I listen to his Saturday radio on BB2 in America. What a terrific example of how infamy affects the human inside. Well done and thank you so much.
