Sad truth behind Rylan Clark Neal's three name changes and image overhaul

On Friday night's Gogglebox, Rylan Clark Neal was settled comfortably down to watch the telly when his mum accidentally blurted out his real name 'Ross.'As well as three name changes, Rylan has also undergone a complete image overhaul and is now virtually unrecognisable from his pre-fame days.

"I was the fat, ginger kid at school. The first three years of school was hard and then I was like, 'I'm gay now, get over it.' "It was taunting and very difficult. After giving up modelling, Rylan flew to Ibiza where he made money performing in Take That and Westlife tributes bands. He eventually gave up the party isle in pursuit of reality TV fame back home.

"I wouldn't say I have a disorder or anything but if you don't like something, then change it," Rylan admitted during his time on The X Factor in 2012.
