<\/p>\nRylan Clark and Linda Clark<\/h2>\n
Rylan Clark first came to public attention on The X Factor, but it was his victory on Celebrity Big Brother that launched him into a busy career as a presenter and all-round TV favourite. Since then, he\u2019s fronted shows such as This Morning, The Xtra Factor, Supermarket Sweep and Ready Steady Cook.<\/p>\n
Rylan joined Celebrity Gogglebox in 2019 as part of the first-ever celebrity series, appearing on the sofa with his mum Linda. The duo proved such a hit that they returned for subsequent runs, taking part again in 2020 before rejoining the cast in 2022 after a short break.<\/p>\n
