Robert Rinder has cheekily been told to 'get a room' by his social media followers as he gushed over his new friendship with Rylan Clark. The pair have been getting tongues wagging after the criminal barrister and TV star jokingly said they had got engaged while filming their new show.
It was announced last month that Rylan and Rob, known to many as Judge Rinder, will join forces to front a brand new BBC travel show. The three-part BBC Two show will see the pair follow in the footsteps of the romantic poet Lord Byron and English aristocrats who took on the Grand Tour, a classic trip through Europe popular in the 18th and 19th centuries.
But it has recently appeared that Rob has been causing problems for his new TV partner. He took to Twitter with a gorgeous snap showing the two stars standing in what appeared to be the Italian countryside. The views spread for miles while Rylan and Rob stood facing each other under the bright sun beating down on them, both while sporting crisp white shirts and trousers.

"Elton’s set at Glastonbury has inspired us to tie the knot. I [heart] @Rylan," Rob typed alongside the snap on Twitter as fans rushed to share their congratulations with some believing the nuptials to be true. However, those wanting it to be real, were sadly disappointed as Rylan, 34, himself replied and confirmed: "Fake news he’s had a wine."
Then last week, Rylan was forced to address the situation when he made a brief return to the UK. The former Strictly It Takes Two host said: "Someone just congratulated me on the street….. To clarify I am not engaged to @RobbieRinder."
And earlier this week, the pair were seen in a fresh snap in which Rylan appeared shirtless as he looked slightly concerned toward the camera while Rob smiled and leant his head against his bare chest. Tweeting the picture, Rob wrote: "'I'm so glad we made it, look how far we've come my baby'. All the way from Brentwood. @Rylan."
Rylan simply replied: "FFS," while Rob shared a laughing emoji, clearly enjoying keeping the joke of their 'relationship' going. But in his latest Twitter post, Rob shared his appreciation for Rylan alongside a number of images and a sweet quote.
Continuing their Italian adventure, Rob wrote: "'It’s the friends we meet along the way that help us appreciate the journey.' @Rylan." And fans were rushing to comment as they continued to share their love for the pair and their hopes that they're friendship becomes a romantic one.
@NutterLesley replied: "Get a room you two. I’d love to see you two together, love you both." @gillbarrie said: "Bloody love you two.. cannot wait to see what you’ve been up to." @HelenWh17690860 added: "Ah, I love your friendship."
