Rylan Clark, 35, and Rob Rinder, 45, make a joint red carpet appearance at the BAFTA Television Awards 2024 after revealing their 'friendship is growing into love'

Rylan Clark and Rob Rinder made a joint red carpet appearance at the 2024 TV BAFTAs on Sunday after revealing their 'friendship is growing into love.'

This Morning host Rylan, 35, and TV judge Rob, 45, looked appropriately dapper as they stepped out at the star-studded event.

Rylan cut a sharp figure as he embraced the red carpet wearing a black tuxedo, complete with a suave dickie bow.

The clean-shaven TV personality appeared in high spirits as he posed confidently next to Rob at London's Royal Festival Hall.

Rob, known on TV as Judge Rinder, looked sensational as he attended the glitzy event wearing a black suit, which he paired with a crisp white shirt and a black tie.
The duo were joined at the hip for the evening as they were later seen together on stage when they presented the Soap Award.

They were also spotted with their arms around each other as they took a lift to the grand hall earlier in the night.

Their joint appearance comes after Rob hinted at romance with Rylan just hours earlier on Sunday, while plugging the duo's new BBC Two travel show.

Amid the promo trail, the duo, who forged their friendship after sharing a divorce lawyer, Rylan shared a sweet image with Rob, which the latter went on to share with a cryptic message.

Rob sparked rumours of romance with his response, as he shared the tweet and penned: 'Friendship may and often does, grow into love.' Byron .. See you alongside him 9pm tonight'.

The quote from romantic poet Lord Byron comes of the back of their travel show as they follow a journey of Byron, two centuries after his death.

In the original post, alongside a stunning shot of the duo in a vineyard, Rylan penned: 'Tonight our new show starts at 9pm on BBC Two and IPlayer...
'It was so special. This man has become family to me because of this experience. It really is a show like no other and we're so proud of it. Hope you enjoy x'.

Thrilled fans spiraled into speculation, with X users writing: 'Please be a couple, please be a couple, please be a couple...

'The perfect couple in the perfect place.. Watch this space!... With you two in it it's got to be good, I bet your quite mischievous when your together.'

The duo's show is a new three-part TV series, which they have both claimed worked its way into being a 'heartbreak holiday'.

Having both endured painful divorces, they were ready to embrace the next chapter in their lives by throwing themselves into experiences outside their comfort zones.

And they certainly got that on Rob & Rylan's Grand Tour, in which they retrace the steps of the 18th- and 19th-century English aristocrats who left the confines of British society behind to seek freedom and adventure on the classic upper-class gap year – a Grand Tour of the Continent's cultural capitals.

In particular, Rob and Rylan follow the most famous Grand Tourist of all, Romantic poet Lord Byron, on the 200th anniversary of his death.

He travelled to Venice in 1816 and then on to Florence and Rome, fleeing a scandalous divorce caused partly because he slept with his half-sister.
'I don't often compare myself to Byron, but I too am a divorcee,' says criminal barrister Rob, 45, best known as formidable Judge Rinder on his ITV reality courtroom show and a former Strictly contestant.

He and his ex-husband, barrister Seth Cumming, divorced in 2018. 'And so is Rylan. And we're both looking for a new start too.'

Regular This Morning presenter Rylan who was married to ex-Met detective and reality star Dan Neal for five years before they split in 2021, says they bonded easily.

'You see the evolution of our friendship. We were just mates before but now we're friends. We've both been through pain recently so we're getting away from it on the original package holiday, the Grand Tour, which is about experiencing new things.'

During their sunny trip, Rob is keen to convert Rylan to his passion for the art, architecture and classical music that the original Grand Tourists came to Europe to experience.

Rylan jokes that 'the nearest I've got to classical music is when Pete Tong did Ibiza dance tunes with an orchestra', but nevertheless he throws himself into the culture with a passion.

MailOnline contacted representatives for Rob and Rylan for a comment. They confirmed that the rumours are not true and the post was solely to inform their fans that their new show airs on Sunday.
