Rylan Clark has denied being in a relationship with Ex On The Beach star Declan Doyle.
The 33 year old TV presenter and reality star were rumoured to be dating, but the pair have both now taken to their individual social media pages to set the record straight.
Rylan, who split from husband Dan Neal in June 2021 after six years of marriage, told his 1.5million followers that he attempted to "ignore" the reports about his romantic life, but "this isn't ok".
"For the past few weeks there's been stories regarding my 'relationship'," he wrote. "I've stayed out of it, ignored it, but this is ridiculous. I'm not in a relationship, haven't been for over a year and have no intention to."
He went on to insist that he's single as he continued: "I'm looking after myself for a change and it's staying that way. Hopefully this clears any fabricated stories up the past few weeks and to whoever is 'selling' them……"
Trailing off, he referred people to look at the post on his feed, which had a comment from his PR agency that read: "In light of recent made up stories, we, nor Rylan wish to comment on his private life.
"However on this occasion we feel we need to. There is absolutely no truth to this story or the many others stories that have run about this apparent "relationship" in the past few weeks.
"Rylan is single and lives on his own. Any reports to the contrary are completely fabricated, @carverpr_."
Meanwhile Declan also took to his Instagram stories to share a statement from his PR agency as well, which read: "Based on a series of unfortunate events and the recent false accusations that have been made against our client.
"We would like to make it clear that we don't normally feel it necessary to comment publicly on our clients private life or his relationship status.
"Declan is single and happy and has been for awhile. He is currently in a really good place with a supportive network around him. We aim to set the record straight for those who are confused and those who are insisting on producing false stories. @daddytheagency".
Stories about their reported relationship emerged earlier this year after the pair were seen sharing a kiss. Later, Declan made an appearance on GB News, where he told host Mark Dolan: “We’re just dating, it’s been a few dates – we really get on.”
He added: “It’s just weird having to talk about it, it’s just been a few dates, it’s really early on, we are enjoying each other's company, but it is going well.”
On Friday 29 July, a source told MailOnline that Rylan and Declan's relationship had "fizzled out" as they shared: "He's [Declan] really enjoying single life but is equally having a great time getting to know TOWIE's Junaid Ahmed.

"Declan's an Essex boy after all and met Junaid through cast members Dani Imbert, James Lock and Ella Rae Wise at a party last Christmastime."
Despite both Declan and Rylan's denial of a relationship between them, the former Celebrity Big Brother star recently discussed with OK! whether he would be up for flying out to Majorca to find 'The One' on the ITV show Love Island.
"I would now, f**k it!" he said. "I’d be embarrassed though. If I went on Love Island, I’d have to go on a foreign one like Australia or Italy, so nobody knew who I was."
