He added, “We started this process as friends and we finished it as true friends, and that’s probably one of the best things to come out of it.”
As the pair discussed their show, Rob had nothing but wonderful things to say about his co-star, as he said during filming: ‘He made me proud every day.”
Looking admiringly at Rylan, Ben then teased, “See, that look is why people think something is up.”
Rylan then touched his stomach as he joked: “We’re expecting,” before Rob added: “It’s not the color he’s really glowing like that.”
The celebrity romance rumor has had the internet in meltdown since the weekend, and fans continued to notice the spark between the two.
On Twitter they wrote: ‘Rob seems totally in love with Rylan’; “Rob and Rylan purposely fuel their fans’ thoughts by leaning against each other on the couch’s touching arms.”
‘Oh, the way Rylan looks at Rob while he’s talking, it looks like he kind of loves him’; “@Rylan I just love you and @RobbieRinder- your amazing friendship!!”
During their first show together, which aired on BBC2 on Sunday night, Rylan posted a message urging viewers to listen in, saying: ‘This man has become family to me.’

On paper, however, their personalities are very different: Rob is a cultured and erudite criminal lawyer, while Rylan is a Eurovision presenter and former X Factor semi-finalist. Pictured in Rome during a tour

In response, Rob, famous for his TV show Judge Rinder, cryptically posted: “Friendship can and often does grow into love.”
Considering that the two men both recently went through high-profile divorces, and that they happen to share the same divorce lawyer, online sleuths seized on the post as evidence that their professional relationship had transitioned into something more.
On paper, however, their personalities are completely apart – Rob is a cultured and erudite criminal lawyer, while Rylan is a Eurovision presenter and former X Factor semi-finalist – and Rylan quickly shut down the rumor by posting on out with Rob Rinder’.
But while promoting the show in Saturday’s Weekend magazine, they jokingly called their relationship “the perfect platonic marriage” and gave tantalizing glimpses into how their friendship had developed during filming of the three-part TV series that initially brought them together . .
The painful breakups the couple endured left them ready to embrace the next chapter in their lives by diving into experiences outside their comfort zone.
And they certainly get that in the new show, which follows in the footsteps of 18th and 19th century English aristocrats who left the confines of British society behind to seek freedom and adventure during the classic upper-class gap year – a Grand Tour of the The cultural capitals of the continent.
During Sunday night’s TV Baftas, Rob admitted he has developed a deep bond with Rylan. He described him as the “real deal” but insisted they are not in a romantic relationship.
‘We are not a couple. It’s what Rylan said: We’re like a very old married couple, we row, we laugh together and we don’t have sex,” he said.
