Rylan Clark has broken his silence after defending I’m A Celebrity’s Tulisa as he revealed the real reason why he spoke out against the ‘disgusting’ trolls.
The ITV presenter, 36, took to X on Monday to support his pal after the N-Dubz star, 36, was mocked for her changing appearance.
Speaking to MailOnline Rylan, who is working with Amazon in time for Black Friday, revealed that Tulisa has ‘been there for him since X Factor’ and ‘will always defend her’.
He said some of Tulisa’s procedures were done for medical reasons and those targeting her online are ‘disgusting’.
He told MailOnline: ‘T is a really good friend of mine and she has very much been there for me since X Factor and vice versa.
‘And she’s been through a hell of a lot over the past few years, medically wise, that I know has been well documented.’

He continued: ‘She spoke about it on Olivia Atwood’s podcast, which I was glad she spoke about. So to hear people be like, ” why has she done this to her face, why has she done that”.
‘I just feel like saying, ”what has it got to do with you for a start and second of all, actually some of the things she’s done to her face is is medical reasons, so none of your business at the end of the day”.
‘I’ll always defend my mates and I don’t care what people say about me. I get more annoyed that people say about people I love. Everyone’s always got an opinion and that’s fine.
‘People can say what they want, but don’t go for someone for a medical issue. I think that’s disgusting.’
Rylan then went on to say that he thinks it’s fine for people to have opinions on changes they make for cosmetic reasons.
He revealed that he thought it was ‘fine’ when he faced the brunt of social media after he got his teeth done.
But he said people need to ‘leave it out’ when it comes to medical reasons, as she recently opened up about a health battle that left her in ‘horrific’ pain and fearing for her face.
The singer was diagnosed with Bell’s palsy in 2020 – a neurological disorder that causes paralysis or weakness on one side of the face when the facial nerve is damaged or stops working properly.

Yet she soon became locked in a vicious cycle of having filler to even out her appearance and her face becoming inflamed and swollen.
Speaking on Olivia Attwood’s podcast So Wrong It’s Right this month, Tulisa admitted the problems were particularly bad around the time she reformed with the trio in 2022, ending their 11-year hiatus from the music scene with a new tour and single release.
A doctor soon got to the cause after performing an ultrasound on her face, finding ‘three chronically infected cysts’ in her cheek, one of which popped during an ‘explorative operation’ due to being so bulbous.
Tulisa shared: ‘I’ve no idea what they were caused by, they weren’t filler, they were just self-occurring, but I came out of the operation and instantly my face was less swollen.
She added that after having her first Bell’s palsy attack aged 24, she attempted to use fillers to ‘balance out’ her face, causing her to be locked in a ‘vicious cycle.’
Two years passed, and the condition was kept at bay, but she started to feel a ‘low-level swelling’ in the same cheek, which rapidly increased.

His comments come as he is about to work with Amazon for their Black Friday Week Show.

Speaking of his work with the shopping platform, Rylan told MailOnline: ‘I’ve worked with the three of them before, mainly at Strictly. Stacey and me have presented the one show together and she’s just such a laugh.
‘Adam is such a lovely boy, and Clara should be presenting everything because she is just such a decent girl and she knows her stuff.
‘Her music knowledge is like second to none. It’s quite frightening. I love working with Clara, any opportunity, I’m like bring Clara in. I love her.’
Rylan then went to reveal that his glamourous Amazon wish list features Elemis Face Mask and a St.Tropez Tan Mousse.
