RYLAN CLARK: BLOWING UP MY PERFECT LIFE
Ойын-сауық
Rylan Clark joins Jamie for this week’s episode to discuss his obsession with fame, a breakdown that left him unable to make a cup of tea, and THAT scene on X Factor with Nicole Scherzinger.
Rylan hit our screens in 2012 on TV talent show, X Factor and quickly became one of the most talked about contestants. Fast forward 12 years and he’s gone from TV joke to national treasure. But all the success came at a cost, when Rylan suffered a breakdown in 2021 and had to step away from the limelight.
Opening up about why he triggered that change, and the difference between his onscreen presence, Rylan, and his true self, Ross, this conversation will both make you laugh and cry.

And funny!
This is going to sound weird but I’m in a Facebook group because of the breed of dog I’ve got and people got chatting about “famous people they met” and one lady said she was Rylan’s next door neighbour (didn’t give any details re where she lived) she said he was the NICEST person she’d ever met, that he was genuinely lovely not that fake “I’m being nice cos I have to” nice. After seeing this interview I can well believe her!
Rylan is the best thing to come out of reality tv. A really insightful interview. Hes so authenticly open and vulnerable 100% of the time.
That story about being unable to make a cup of tea till he literally did it in baby steps... i can relate. it's crazy but it's so real. that kind of poor mental health SUCKS.
Rylan is an amazing person he needs to back on our screens more I think he's so down to earth,love him and josie together,josie would look after him she said if he wasn't gay he would be her perfect man 😂❤
What an incredible interview. I've always been a Rylan fan, but he shines the most here. And love that Jamie guides the conversation so effortlessly and doesn't interrupt him and lets him speak, which is key to being a successful interviewer. Rylan is such a gloriously honest, quick witted and intelligent man and deserves the moon on a stick ✨🌟💫
I’ve adored Rylan from day one, I love that he is brutally honest. I wish you the world sweetheart ❤
He’s absolutely beautiful inside and out i could listen to him all day especially the real him he’s so down to earth I really love this side to him x
Rylan - my mum and I have adored you since X factor, and my heart feels so full seeing you with such a glow and such happiness again! You deserve the world sweet angel ❤
Hi Jamie I can really relate to Rylans breakdown I work as a carer in a care home & everyone just wants something from you, so overwhelming, His honesty is appreciated ❤

You work in a care home, that is your job to care, if you dont like it why are you taking the wage. What's wrong with people these days?!

I met Rylan 10 years ago and had a photo with him. Literally was the NICEST guy. And not the fake showbiz nice. A warm welcoming guy.
I experienced the exact same thing as Rylan describes with the sudden stop and not being able to make a cup of tea. It’s called being semi-catatonic. Mine was the result of untreated severe depression that I had been attempting to ignore while overworking myself. I had to do a similar approach to building up my capacity for life again, at first I couldn’t speak or make myself a glass of water but over time I managed to make cups of tea again in the way Rylan describes. I’m very sorry to hear Rylan went through that and I’m glad to see he’s in a much better place now. Thanks for talking about your experiences, it makes myself and many others feel less alone.

I hope you’re okay now x
Jamie, you are an absolutely brilliant interviewer. I loved when Rylan said people open up more to you because you’re not out to get them. Very self depreciating, smart, articulate and kind, you seem genuinley delighted to have your guests on and you’re my absolute favourite interviewer and. I hope you keep going from strength to strength… that interview was a blast! Love your channnel ❤
I wasn't a fan after his escapades on X-Factor but after hearing him on his Radio 2 show I was completely converted. Such a genuine, honest and funny guy. Great chat Ross & Jamie.
Aw, now my heart feels so full❤ I loved every moment of this - and as always, you are such a natural interviewer Jamie, keep up the sensational work and incredible guests 🫶💕
Note to self. Must stop chopping onions 😭😭😭 what an amazing insight into his life. Amazing man. Thank you for sharing your journey ❤
Loved Rylan and his mum on celebrity gogglebox. She is as funny as he is. 😂😂😂❤
Sweetheart… I think it’s probably your body saying no. You can only keep calm and carry on for so long. If you’ve had a breakdown, lost speech and vision and it was instantaneous (from someone who has been there and still not managed to do anything pretty much eight YEARS later after doing a LOT and having been through a lot) I think your nervous system just shut down and forced you to reflect xx Great interview and Jamie - you got the skillset and genuine nature of a presenter and podcaster down my friend!! ❤❤
Jamie is such an accomplished interviewer. He actually listens to his guests whilst still engaging with them. Rylan is just adorable, I love watching and listening to him. Watching him with Rob Rinder was an absolute pleasure, his instinctive understanding of the art he was looking at was amazing. Plus , he’s so handsome ! ❤

He’s great isn’t he, genuinely seems so invested in what Rylan has to say.

I’ve enjoyed this so much. You both just brighten my day every time I see you.
Such a genuine person.. I’ve loved Rylan since he did the show ‘Signed by Katie price’ many years ago..
Loved this ❤
What an amazing insight into his mind and life, thank you for revealing all. I genuinely love him at last as I was always on the fence.
LOVE THIS..... how genuine
Oh my god Rylan I’ve enjoyed the entertainment value of you over the years but you’ve come across as a real person rather than a celeb in this interview. I’m liking this a lot as regardless of how celebs present they are human. This is the way to go. Good for you.

Oh my God, I love Rylan. The programme he did in Florence with Judge Rinder was brilliant, and this is just amazing to watch.
This is amazing, didn’t realise Rylan was so funny!
This is a fantastic episode Jamie 🎉 Rylan seems like such a genuine good person and he is bloody hilarious 😂😂
Such a good man
Just think he is bloody brilliant , true to himself and great x
Great interview. Love Rylan from the minute he was on x factor. I follow him on twitter and he has a fab group of friends. You are amazing ❤
One of the best podcasts I've listened to in a long time
What a brilliant person!
Great self awareness rylan ❤
Wicked video 🎉
Oh Ryland your so funny loved from the x factor, i wish you all the best for whatever pops up,and take care of your lovely Mum❤❤❤
IM CRACKING UP
Rylan I think your amazing, brilliant and so true a person. ❤ I love watching you with your mum. ❤
So glad watched this - not a fan and do not watch reality TV ( other than what filters through general trailers or the like ) - seems such a genuine guy. Other than what he’s let slip about the contract on X factor as know someone who’s been on and the NDA used to be ironclad ( by tbf Rylans become a celebrity not a normal person lol)
I bloody adore Rylan ❤
He’s such a good soul.
Rylan is an absolute legend! I hope he gets the spice bus ❤❤
Love Rylan!! 🩷🩷
Love you both From a kiwi lady ❤
This popped up on my YT feed. I was already fond of Rylan (and what I've seen of Ross), but was ambiguous on Jamie ("seemed like a nice bloke on strictly, I wonder if he's any good at interviewing?".). Well that's a yes, then. Two really lovely guys being warm, engaging, open, having a flowing and insighful discussion (and swearing like troopers). I seem to have subscribed....
Love honesty, hate liar's. Love Rylan
