Showbiz break to be father

TV presenter Rylan Clark-Neal said he intends to take a year off work if he and his husband Dan have a baby together.

The former X Factor contestant, who regularly appears on This Morning, said he would “love” to have kids when the time is right.

Clark-Neal, above, quashed rumours that his relationship with ex-police officer and Big Brother contestant Dan, a father of one, is in trouble.

The 28-year-old said: “I’m already a stepdad but, of course, I’d like to have kids.

“Since day one I’ve always wanted kids. I love babies. It is definitely something that we will talk about and discuss if, how, when and why.

“It’s doable. It’s always on the table, it’s just when the time is right. If I did have a baby, I’d be the sort to want a year off just to be a dad.”
