TV personality Rylan Clark has confessed his fears for his mum’s health after returning from a trip to India with Rob Rinder.
The 36-year-old and Rob, 47, were in the country filming their latest travel show Rob and Rylan’s Passage to India, which saw them exploring the vibrant culture and stunning landscapes of India.
This follows a previous collaboration between the pair where they journeyed through Italy, during which their friendship flourished.
However, their travels have also led to deeper conversations about mortality. Speaking to Radio Times Magazine, Rylan revealed that the trip had made him more concerned about his mother’s health than his own.
He said: “I’m more worried about losing my mum than losing my own life. I feel like coming back from Varanassi was eye-opening. It made me realise I’ve just got to enjoy things I’m doing, and if I’m not enjoying it, then don’t f***ing do it.”
Rylan’s comments came in response to Rob’s own profound reflections on mortality, where he admitted his fear of death.
He confessed: “The dark shadow of death and fear of it is a present force and has always been for me. The looming idea it’s going to end. The unknown is the great terror.”
Despite the uncertainty of what the future holds, we can take comfort in reflecting on the past. In recent years, Rylan’s mum Linda has become a beloved figure on Celebrity Gogglebox, where she shares a sofa and her TV opinions with Rylan.
It’s his mum’s wellbeing that Rylan occasionally updates his Radio 2 audience about during his programme.
On one occasion, the former X Factor star had to step away from his radio duties to care for his mother.
He revealed on Instagram back in July: “Mummy Linda isn’t well sadly so I won’t be hosting the show tomorrow. Thank you to the emergency team at Princess Alexandra Hospital. Will keep you updated as she’s on the mend. She’s a trooper.”
Beyond talking about his mum’s health struggles, Rylan has also been open about his own medical issues after experiencing heart failure in the wake of his 2021 split from former husband Dan Neal.
Speaking to The Times, Rylan revealed how the health scare affected him: “The first thing I do is have a coffee, which has to be decaf after my heart failure four years ago. When I was getting divorced, I ended up in an ambulance twice.
“I have three or four cups to make myself function, and the only breakfast I have is a sachet of collagen mixed into a shake. Believe it or not, I’m very picky about what I put in my mouth; I like a tropical one.”
