Rylan Clark looked like a man in love in the snaps he shared with his new beau Kennedy Bates from their dreamy-looking holiday to the Maldives.
The series of stunning snaps he posted on Friday included one with a hotel room bed scattered with rose petals and the words, ‘Welcome home Rylan & Bates.’ Others included one of his new man lying on the beach, the pair of them making a toast by the sea and a shot of the shirtless TV star from behind with a heart painted on his back in suncream.

Rylan captioned the carousel of images from their trip at the decadent Adaaran Select Meedhupparu hotel with the simple words, “ You were perfect. New year, new friends, new beginnings.”
And fans flooded the comments section, happy to see the telly favourite in such a good place, five years after his heartbreaking divorce from ex Dan Neal – following Rylan’s admission that he had cheated.
They included a host of famous pals. Zoe Ball wrote, “ Love this love for you Baby”, while his on-screen husband, Rob Rinder teased him with the comment, “This is the standard I had in mind for you.”
This Morning ’s Josie Gibson simply posted a string of red heart emojis, and Christine Mcguinness wrote, “Love love love”, while good pal Lizzie Cundy joked, “Am I going to be bridesmaid, or what?”
Angellica Bell penned, “Babezzzz, why you making me feel all gooey, you big softie!, while GMB presenter Ranvir Singh commented, “This is very cute”.

Rylan, 37, went public on his new romance with Kennedy, 48 -who is the boss of Billy Bates & Sons funfair in Leicestershire, last August during an interview with Louis Theroux on his How To Be In Love podcast last year, which followed his journey to find love.
The former Big Brother winner confessed at the time that had been ‘blatant’ about the romance, going on multiple public dates ‘nobody noticed’. The loved-up couple have already discussed the possibility of starting a family together, he told Louis – revealing it was something they both knew they wanted.
Rylan told Louis, “’At this time, I’m very happy. Recently, I have gotten into a relationship, and it’s great, and it feels very different to anything I’ve had before, which is a good sign to me.
‘It’s the first person I’ve met in four years that I’ve introduced to my family. I’m happy. I’ve not done probably what I should-slash-did do – which is not really go to restaurants, not really do this and want to keep it on the quiet – I’ve done the opposite.
‘I’ve been so blatant about it no one’s noticed, which I’m sort of a little bit cocky at and I’m going to own. But I thought I’m not going to… just because of my job and I don’t want people finding out, I’m not going to miss out on this part. I’m loving what I’ve got at the minute and I want to keep it that way.
