Rylan Clark welcomes three new surprising additions to family after split from ex

Rylan Clark has welcomed three unusual additions to his home.

The reality TV star, who split from ex Dan Neal last year, has bought three pet jellyfish to have in a tank in the hallway of his huge home.

Sharing the newest additions to his life, he took to Instagram as he posted a video to a sound clip of Destiny Child's Bootylicious with the lyrics 'I don't think you're ready for this jelly'.

The short clip showed the three little sea creatures swimming about their new home, which was lit up with a bright pink light.

Rylan captioned the post: " Introducing…. Beyoncé, Kelly & Michelle."

But fans were confused at what they were seeing as they mistook the tank for a toilet seat.

Nat said: " I thought this was some elaborate toilet at first."

Another user said: "Thought you'd got a fancy new toilet at first."

Hanna said: "Why does that look like an illuminated loo seat? Do i need my eyes testing?!"

The 33-year-old had also recently appeared on BBC's The One Show to talk to host Alex Jones about his new family members.

He said: " I've got a couple of jellyfish coming on Monday to have in the entrance hall.

"I've had the tank for two weeks. I've had to adjust the water and all that."

When asked why he wanted such unusual pets, he said: "I'm on my own now so you know."

Last year saw the This Morning presenter take a break not only from his long-term partner Dan Neal but also from his career and social media accounts.

He has since transformed his life after going through the heartbreaking split from his ex.

The former X-Factor star said the breakup affected him so badly that he ended up hospitalised and his weight dropped to just nine stone, as he said that he was "in a bad place" and he was "seeking help."

But since then he has returned to work, treating himself to new teeth and beginning a fitness journey.
