Reverend Richard Coles, 62, admits he once burnt himself while having sex in a burger van on the side of the road in the Midlands
Reverend Richard Coles has revealed he once burnt himself while having sex in a burger van. The Church of England priest, 63, has recalled a moment before he joined the clergy when his hand touched a 'hot griddle' as he and a burger man had 'casual sex' in the vehicle, which was parked in a lay-by in the Midlands, England. Chatting on the Rylan: How to Be in Love podcast with host Rylan Clark, the I'm A Celebrity star joked that 'food hygiene has got a lot better' from his wild days. He admitted: 'I went through a period of having a very interesting and full life … I discovered casual sex in a place where it wasn't often found, which is on the road network of the Midlands.' Rylan chimed in: 'Dogging?' From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the DailyMail's new Showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. The Church of England priest, 63, has recalled a moment before he joined the clergy when his hand touched a 'hot griddle' as he and a burger man had 'casual sex' in the vehicle, which was parked in a lay-by in the Midlands, England 'Well we didn't call it that then. It was meeting people in lay-bys', Richard replied. He continued: 'It really was like that. There was one chap, I remember. Oh, it's just terrible. There was a burger van out there, and I ended up getting off with the burger man. 'Anyway he had to sort of draw the shutter down on his burger van, and then it rocked around a bit.' Rylan pointed out: 'That must have been dangerous with that griddle.' Richard revealed: 'Well, I put my hand back on the hot griddle, exactly. I got a burn ... I have to say as well, the food hygiene has got a lot better.' Richard - who shot to fame as a member of the 1980s pop groups Bronski Beat and The Communards - also revealed he has a lifetime ban from Avis rent-a-car after he got 's***-*****' on 'ecstasy and acid' in Ibiza. The reality star explained: 'It was really after the band [The Communards] reached its highest point and we were taking a break which we are still on 35 years later. 'That was when sex and drugs and rock and roll came together for me and I took some time out and I went to Ibiza and I just was s***-***** for many, many months. 'There was one summer I went, and I went with a bunch of people, and we all just took ecstasy and acid, oh, everything really. And I remember we got barred from Avis rent-a-car for life because we got through a lot of vehicles. 'Mavis from Avis, she was furious.' Rylan had to check if he heard what Richard had said correctly, and asked: 'Stop! Got barred from Avis?' Richard confirmed: 'Yeah, for life.' The former pop star also bought a speedboat, and he does not know its whereabouts. Richard said: 'I bought a speedboat and I don't know where it is.' It comes after Richard revealed he is now taking weight loss jab Ozempic as a 'birthday present to myself'. The injections have long been hailed as a monumental breakthrough in the war on obesity and type 2 diabetes. Now, the former Communards star said he opted for the drug 'because I'm too fat and I want to lose some weight'. The former Church of England vicar has not yet suffered any unpleasant side effects. He told The Independent: 'My birthday present to myself was Ozempic, because I'm too fat and I want to lose some weight — it's affecting my health I think. 'I could do it the regular way but realistically if I'm very busy I need all the help I can get. 'My stomach feels a bit different, not unpleasantly, weirdly low in appetite. It seems to be diminished.' He added: 'I just don't want to get dependent on something just to keep health-threatening weight off. 'I want to get down to a reasonable weight and then maintain it without the assistance of pharmacy. I want to lose two stone.' At least half a million NHS patients and some 15million in the US are now thought to be using weight loss jabs, which can help patients lose up to 20 per cent of their bodyweight in just a few months. They have also been shown to significantly reduce the risk of heart attacks and strokes. However, side effects are wide-ranging, from nausea and abdominal pain to severe digestive issues and even bone pain. Other reported problems using the jabs include constipation, fatigue, headaches, dizziness and even hair loss.

Rapper Snoop Dogg wants to open burger van at Celtic
Legendary rapper Snoop Dogg has revealed he wants to show his love for Celtic by opening a burger van outside the home of the Scottish champions. The American music icon has previously expressed interest in buying a stake in the Glasgow club after being inspired by the success of Hollywood celebrities Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney at English second-tier side Wrexham. But the 53-year-old has now set his sights on a more modest connection with a team he has long admired. Snoop Dogg, who has published a recipe book called From Crook to Cook, once described Celtic supporters as "special" and said he identified with the club's mascot Hoopy the Hound. He told the Sunday Mail that Celtic fans would flock to the burger van and that it would become a foodie "Paradise", the nickname give to the club's Parkhead stadium. "I would love to bring a pop-up burger van to a sports stadium to show fans that food at stadiums can be good," he said. "It's got to be Celtic Park, man. The secret to a good burger is the love in the preparation. The ground beef has got to be mixed with some secret spices, then add a good quality cheese and some maple-cured bacon. "The Celtic fans are gonna love it, and to make sure they are just right, Snoop is going to be serving them himself." Snoop Dogg worked as a correspondent for NBC at the Paris Olympics last year, has launched two youth football leagues, and has been a vocal advocate for pay equality for female athletes. He claimed he would not be taking his culinary ventures to Celtic's arch rivals Rangers. "Am I going to bring my burgers to Rangers as well? Nah, I think we will give that a miss," he said.
