Rylan Clark has hilariously shut down rumours of a new romance.
A photograph that Clark posted on social media sparked speculation that the TV personality is spending the holidays with a new romantic interest.
The former X Factor star split from his husband of six years Dan Neal earlier this year.
Clark, 34, recently shared a photo of himself relaxing on a sofa to Instagram. In the picture, a bar of chocolate is seen balanced on a leg.
The picture led fans to believe that Clark had company.
Only minutes later, however, Clark posted another message to his Instagram Story, reading: “I’m eating chocolate and it’s resting on my leg. Not a chocolate ice pack.”
He added, “Not someone else’s leg. Sadly,” alongside laughing emojis.
Clark has been candid about the breakdown he suffered amid his divorce from Neal, telling fans that he suffered two heart failures during the breakdown of his marriage.

The year had barely started when the tabloids came for Rylan. Back in January, a video of the presenter on a night out in Soho, filmed by an anonymous person, was posted online. In the clip, the unknown figure is seen laughing with Rylan who, with a megawatt grin on his face, declares with gleeful abandon: “Give me the gear!” As far as the tabloids were concerned, they’d got the goods. “Rylan Clark caught demanding drugs,” one headline read. Another called him “troubled”. But what they failed to understand was that the TV star was – shock horror! – making a joke.
“It was a drug dealer outside Freedom,” says the 33-year-old TV and radio host, with a hint of frustration in his voice. “He’s filming and comes and puts his arm around me, so I’ve joked, ‘Come on then, get the gear out.’ If I was doing a line off someone’s chest,...

Rylan Clark revealed the frightening extent of the breakdown he suffered amid his divorce from his husband of six years, Dan Neal.
Clark and Neal got married in 2015, and last July the It Takes Two presenter announced that the pair had separated on Instagram.
During his An Evening With Rylan Clark event at London Royal Festival Hall on Wednesday (21 September), Clark told the audience he’d suffered two heart failures amid the breakdown of his marriage.
“It was like my body had shut down. Twice last year I ended up back in an ambulance because my heart had failed and it was really strange because I just remember for a couple of weeks going, ‘My heart hurts’,” the former X Factor contestant said, per Metro.
Clark reportedly told the audience that he had a resting heart rate of 248 beats per minute at the time.
“My heart had to be restarted.

Clark had a breakdown at the end of the relationship, and took four months off work – spending a period of time in hospital.
Appearing on Fearne Cotton’s Happy Place podcast, Clark said: “My body did completely shut down. I wouldn’t eat. I went through a stage where I couldn’t even talk, which for some people might be quite handy.

Rylan Clark has confirmed that he will return as host of Big Brother's Bit on the Side, dismissing claims that he angered producers by getting involved with a contestant from last series.
The former Celebrity Big Brother winner and X Factor contestant told Jon Hornbuckle for Digital Spy that reports he had lost the role after getting close to series 14 contestant Dan Neal were untrue.
"I will be back, despite some recent allegations," he said. "I love presenting... I think a lot of people doubted me when it was announced that I would be presenting the show.
"I don't think I'm big-headed, but I think I've done a great job and that's what I've been told.

The former policeman said he felt ''cheated'' to have been voted off the Channel 5 programme as he and Sophie Lawrence and Sam Evans thought they were immune from this week's evictions - only to discover Big Brother had lied and they were the nominated housemates. He said: ''I am upset. I feel cheated. If this had been a normal week I wouldn't have gone.'' Despite his upset at being the fifth housemate to leave the show, Dan, 33, insisted he had no regrets. He told programme host Emma Willis: ''I spoke my mind.

It’s time for Channel 5 to evict Big Brother.
As an avid Big Brother fan that is very hard for me to say; but it’s the right time. I still love it, I have it on series record and I watch every episode. I still find Big Brother as entertaining and interesting as I did the first time I watched it. The problem is: not too many people feel the same way as I do.
The live launch of this year’s Big Brother has been the least watched in the history of the show, with an average of 2.1 million viewers. That was a slide of 600,000 from the previous year. On Channel Two at the same time as the Big Brother launch night was a documentary on Cats – Horizon: The Secret Life Of The Cat – which pulled in an audience of 4.9 million. It appears the viewers find cats more interesting than the housemates.

The policeman - who was previously investigating Operation Yewtree, the probe set up in the wake of the sex abuse claims made against disgraced 'Jim'll Fix It' presenter Jimmy Savile - was given the warning after he repeatedly threatened to punch fellow housemate Callum Knell. Dan was furious after Callum voted for him in the face-to-face nominations, explaining his choice was because they are ''not very close'', which Dan described as a ''lame reason''.

Big Brother housemates Dexter Koh, Gina Rio, Dan Neal and Wolfy Millington have been nominated for eviction.
The four face the public vote ahead of the third eviction of the series on Friday night (July 5) after housemates were forced to nominate face-to-face for the first time.
Dexter received ten nominations, with Gina the only housemate not to nominate him this week.
He was also banned from nominating due to an undisclosed rule break earlier in the day.
Meanwhile, Gina received four nominations - from Hazel, Jackie, Daley and twins Jack and Joe.
Gina took issue with Hazel's nomination after she accused her of "whining", while Daley nominated her as they don't share a close relationship.
Dan and Wolfy - who have clashed numerous times during the past week - both received two nominations and will also face the public vote.
Wolfy received nominations from Dan and Charlie, and Dan was nominated by Wolfy and Callum.

Gina took issue with Hazel's nomination after she accused her of "whining", while Daley nominated her as they don't share a close relationship.

Wolfy received nominations from Dan and Charlie, and Dan was nominated by Wolfy and Callum.

Big Brother housemates Dan Neal and Joe Glenny clashed yesterday (June 30) in a heated row in the bedroom.
The pair rowed after Joe took issue with comments Dan made to Hazel about her cigarettes.
Joe was clearly unhappy with the 33-year-old former policeman's comments.
Dan told him: "I don't want to make a big thing of it," while Joe told Dan that he was merely stating "the facts".
He warned: "Don't make me angry. I wasn't making a big deal, I was saying what the facts are, they're her fags. Deal with it."
The row escalated as both parties told each other that the issue was none of their business.
"Stay out of it, Joe, I wasn't talking to you," Dan said.
At that point, Joe lost his temper with his fellow housemate, saying; "Dan, please don't patronise me and don't speak down to me. Don't ever think you can...

Big Brother's Jemima Slade said she was surprised at the level of booing she received on exiting the house tonight (June 28).
The 41-year-old was beaten in the public vote by Dexter Koh, becoming the second to leave the current series after Sallie Axl last week.
Asked by Emma Willis if she had expected the hostile response she received from the crowd, Jemima admitted: "I didn't think I would get that many boos."
She went on to insist that the other housemates had expected her to stay, including her opponent Dexter: "He really thought he was going tonight. Everybody did... Most of them wanted me to stay as well."
Discussing the reasons for her being nominated, she suggested that "some people found... [her] a bit controlling".
"The days are so, so long," she continued, explaining that it was "so intense" in the house and that "you can't fart without no-one knowing...

'Big Brother' contestant Dan Neal could be axed after bullying a fellow housemate. The 33-year-old police detective - who was part of Operation Yewtree, Scotland Yard's probe into celebrity sex offences in the wake of the Jimmy Savile scandal - aggressively questioned fellow contestant Wolfy Millington about her personal life, which caused the distraught 20-year-old to vomit and suffer a nosebleed. The situation was so worrying that producers called in an on-site doctor to attend to Wolfy - whose nosebleed was described as an ''explosion'' - and show bosses are now closely monitoring Dan's behaviour, vowing to eject him from the house...
