According to Mirror, Rylan Clark was ‘hurt’ after show bosses snubbed him for being the host of the show. The X Factor star won Celebrity Big Brother in 2013 and presented the Big Brother spin-off series for five years.

Despite being one of the best options for the presenter role, ITV bosses decided to cast AJ Odudu and Will Best. The 34-year-old star was hurt, however, he was able to pick himself up quickly from the ‘rejection,’ revealed a source. They said:

He was a bit hurt they didn’t consider him to come back as he lives and breathes Big Brother, it was a bitter pill to swallow, but he’s very good at picking himself up and brushing himself off.

Rylan loves working with his mum and there's loads coming up. She's a great support network and it really takes his mind of it when they do shows like Gogglebox together, they're so close.

But amid his dismay, the TV personality is focusing on his close relationship with his mum Linda.
