Celebrity Gogglebox takes us into the homes of some of our favourite stars, letting us see them all dressed-down and tucking into junk food just like we do.

Not only do fans get to see celebs in their flip-flops, viewers also learned tonight (July 3) that Radio 2 and Ready Steady Cook star Rylan Clark-Neal's first name isn't actually Rylan.

While discussing this week's telly, Rylan's always-hilarious mum Linda called him Ross, because that is his name.

Fans, the ones who never looked him up on Wikipedia, at least, were (mildly) SHOCKED.

But if you were hoping to see Rylan Ross and Linda get their own show one day, the star revealed earlier this year that it's sadly very unlikely to happen.

"We've been offered hundreds of things," he said. "We got asked to do a travel show and the chance to go here and go there. It would be hilarious, but she's just not well enough to do it."

Check out fans' reaction to finding out Rylan's real name below:

Elsewhere in tonight's show, Judge Rinder made a hilariously risqué coronavirus joke to Susanna Reid.

When Rinder asked why Reid wouldn't stroke his dog, she hesitantly suggested it was unsafe to do so, as she had read that cats can carry COVID.

He naughtily went on to say: "There are certain things undoubtedly I've been told you can pick up from pussies, but definitely not COVID."

Celebrity Gogglebox airs Friday nights at 9pm on Channel 4.
