I've been a massive fan of Rylan ever since I saw him compete on Signed By Katie Price. I thought he was hilarious and was such a breath of fresh air! To this day I've supported every career move he's done; from life as an X Factor contestant to winning Celebrity Big Brother to presenting Big Brother's Bit On The Side to writing this book, and I couldn't be prouder of the journey he's been on. a b "Top 10 LGBT+ Broadcasters or Journalists 2017".

Well hark at you, stumbling upon my autobiography. Bet you wouldn't have put money on that three years ago, eh?! Please don't stress yourself out too much though, it's actually socially acceptable nowadays that you're interested.

No but seriously, I enjoyed this book so much and felt like I came away with such a good understanding of who Rylan is, which to me is the whole point in reading a book from someone, right? It's a chance to sort of get inside their head and see how they see the world and what they think about their life rather than reading it through the eyes of journalists or magazines trying to guess what is going on.

And people may or may not know that to Linda, Rylan is actually Ross. The presenter has undergone various name changes over the years. Before finding fame, the modelling agency who signed him up told him his real name 'Ross' was boring and dubbed him Kielan instead.

I felt I came away having my faith in fate strengthened. Reading about Rylan's life and all that he has went through, the ups and downs and seeing where he is now, it’s unavoidable when reading his book to not notice how many things in his life just seemed to be destined to happen.

It would be overly simplistic, but not altogether inaccurate, to say that little Ross Clark found comfort in the dream of becoming a star.
