Rylan's fans were quick to rally round with supportive messages, reminding him that single life isn't all bad. Sarah said: "I do get that, but just in keep in mind there are plenty of people at home watching Netflix with their spouse and wishing they were out with their mates. The grass isn’t always greener. Soon you’ll be with someone you love and you’ll get your Netflix and chill evenings again x"
Others reminded him that good friends are also just as good as having a partner. Clare said: "You’ll find your prince one day. But for now be thankful for the good friends you have. Xx"
Nicola said: "It'll come - but the only way it will is when you're feeling your self again. So you need those nights out with friends. Take your time darling. xxxx"
After his divorce, Rylan admitted that the break up triggered a breakdown which led to him having dark thoughts. He bravely shared his struggles as he said that he had to go to hospital "for safety reasons". Speaking to the Observer, he said: "I didn’t think I’d be here. I didn’t think I could continue."
When asked if he meant continue to work or to live, he said: "Both. I didn’t think I’d actually come back. I was very… gone. I was having thoughts and doing things that made me… f***ed up, for want of a better word. I didn’t understand why I was doing that to myself. So, I went away for a bit."
However, he has since returned to work, gotten new veneers and most recently added three new members to his family. He welcomed an unusual choice of pet to his home - jellyfish - who he named Beyoncé, Kelly & Michelle.
