According to The Sun, Rylan and Kennedy have been dating for several months, and the TV presenter has already introduced him to his friends and family.

The couple was seen in the company of Rylan’s mother, Linda, who is 73 years old, at the festival.

“Rylan and his new boyfriend looked seriously in love; they were having a great Time in the VIP area.

“They were laughing and joking, and there was a lot of affection shown. At one point, Rylan playfully slapped Kennedy on the backside as he went to queue for food.

“Kennedy also interacted with Rylan’s mom Linda; he was clearly accepted into the family.

“Rylan seemed to be the life of the party and looked happy having his new boyfriend around.”

These are Rylan’s first serious relationships since his divorce in 2021, which occurred after six years of marriage.

Kennedy, who had previously worked at amusement parks, is now a manager at Billy Bates & Sons in Leicester.

Rylan’s Openness

Not long ago, Rylan spoke about his personal life on the podcast ‘How to Be in Love’.

“At the moment, I am very happy.

“I recently started a relationship, and it’s wonderful, it feels completely different from anything before, which is a good sign for me.

“This is the first person in four years that I’ve introduced to my family.

“I’m so open that nobody notices, just because of my work I don’t want to miss anything.

“I am enjoying what I have and want to keep it.”

Rylan also shared about the difficulties he faced in his previous relationships and what he learned from that experience.

“I don’t regret the marriage. I regret not having a property settlement agreement.

“But at the time when everyone was talking about an agreement, I thought I was in love.”
