Celebrity Gogglebox producers forced to cut 'career-ending' conversations from show as stars warn editors 'don't you dare include that'
The star, aged 36, first rose to fame during his 2012 participation on The X Factor and has since risen to hosting supremacy as a host across a broad spectrum of British TV, including Big Brother's Bit on the Side, Strictly Come Dancing: It Takes Two, This Morning and more recently, Rob and Rylan's Grand Tour – with Robert Rinder.
However fans of Celebrity Gogglebox have enjoyed seeing a more unfiltered side of Rylan, including plenty of wise cracks at his mum's expense.
The pair quickly became a fan favourite due to their zingy banter and no-holds-barred commentary.
However, appearing on This Morning on Friday, the pair admitted there are plenty of sofa conversations that don't make it to air.
Conversations between them can push the boundaries, and he and Linda often have to implore editors to make cuts.

'When he mucks about,' Linda explained: ' I go: 'Please don't put that bit in!''
'We're lucky the editors clearly like us,' Rylan added: 'Because the stuff they've had to cut out is career-ending… We're like, 'yeah can we not use that, please!''
Rylan, 36, and Linda, 72 initially appeared on the celebrity edition of the Channel 4 hit back in 2019. Since then, many fans have called for them to have their own spin off show.
This series of Celebrity Gogglebox has seen the mother/son pair accompanied alongside a star-studded line up, featuring Dani and Danny Dyer, Martin and Roman Kemp, James and Clair Buckley, and Shaun Ryder and Bez.
Viewers have been celebrating Rylan and Linda's comeback to Celebrity Gogglebox, sharing their delight on social media:
One particularly popular moment between the pair included commentary on the Queen's platinum jubilee, in which Rylan had to explain to his mother that Paddington was not a real bear.
'He's not there, is he?' Linda asked, referring to whether Paddington was actually in Buckingham Palace with the queen, as shown in the iconic clip, 'That is the real Queen!'
'Yes, but Paddington is not a real bear,' Rylan shot back, before he is questioned about whether Paddington is a puppet, and abandons the conversation, in exasperation.
However, there were those who had complaints about this year's lineup of celebs.
One posted: 'Celebrity Gogglebox just isn't funny like the original, it feels forced! #gogglebox #Celebritygogglebox.'
Another said: 'We watch normal #Gogglebox because its hilarious and we love all the families. #celebritygogglebox is not funny and we couldn't care less about the celebs. Its just people watching telly.'
Someone else penned: 'Not the dreaded celebrities again, so many of them are so annoying #Celebritygogglebox.'

Love Island winners revealed as Cach and Toni in close final
Cach and Toni have been revealed as the winners of Love Island 2025 after several weeks in the Spanish villa, and they have taken home the £50,000 prize over their fellow finalists Cach Mercer and Toni Laites have been revealed as the winners of Love Island 2025. The ITV2 reality show wrapped up its twelfth series on Monday night and viewers watched as the happy couple both looked shocked when it was declared that they had emerged victorious, and would be walking off with the £50,000 prize. The pair managed to win over the public, beating off competition from fellow finalists Angel Swift and Ty Isherwood, Harry Cooksley and Shakira Khan and Yasmin Pettett and Jamie Rhodes. Immediately after the big win was announced, the couple were greeted by their fellow Islanders as they rushed to congratulate them. Host Maya Jama announced their victory live on air. It comes after one Mirror writer claimed 'the new Bonnie Blue documentary may be the worst thing I've ever seen on Channel 4'. The pair looked shocked upon learning of their big win, and when Maya asked US native Toni if she had any words for the British public, she held back tears and screamed: "Yeah, I love you guys!" Viewers were quick to flood social media with their reactions, with one writing: "There you have winners Congratulations to Cach and Toni our American princess took the crown and our handsome and most gentleman we have this year." Another said: "They went from strangers to soulmates," and embellished their comment with a tears emoji and a red heart, whilst a third said: "Toni and Cach are such a deserving couple. Cach taught Toni the bare minimum she should expect in treatment from a man and Toni taught Cach that pride can sometimes stop you getting what you want. I'm here for it." Cach and Toni first laid eyes on each other during Casa Amor and although they struck up an instant connection, it was obvious Toni's heart was still with Harrison. Harrison however, had shared kisses with Helena in the main villa, leaving Toni with no option to explore, adamant Harrison would be doing the same. Of course, he did as he returned to the main villa with Lauren. The pair were glued to each other's hips, but Harrison continued to have flirty conversations with Toni. Harrison then persuaded Toni to couple up with him at the next recoupling, leaving Cach in tears in scenes that moved the nation. However, when Lauren was dumped from the villa, Harrison told his fellow Islanders that he saw himself being in a relationship with Lauren on the outside. As Harrison made his exit, Cach found it in his heart to forgive Toni, despite trying to get to know Billykiss at the same time. However, it looked like his family made need a little bit more convincing. Cut to the final week, and the couple couldn't have been happier despite all the tests and challenges thrown at them with Cach even telling (not asking) Toni to become exclusive with him. Although the pair reside across the Atlantic from each other, Toni has made it clear that she has no problems moving to London. During the final, the four finalists got all dressed up for one final meal together, and eventual runners-up Harry and Shakira reflected on their journey as a couple together throughout the series. She told him: "Doing this experience without you and watching things unfold was so hard because I felt so strongly towards you. You're everything I could possibly want in a partner. It's been an amazing last week and I'm excited for the future." Prior to coupling up with Shakira, Harry had a l ong-standing romance with Helena Ford and then his ex-girlfriend Emma Munro made a shock entrance to the villa before leaving in the weeks leading up to the final. Shakira was initially coupled up with Harry in the early weeks of the competition, but they got together again just days ahead of the final and he told her: "I came in here and thought it would be a lot of fun. Finding you in a Villa in Mallorca was not on my bingo card this summer. I do regret taking too long to tell you how I felt. We both know this is more than surface level - I think it always has been for me."
