Rylan Clark has revealed he had a secret bitter feud with a major actor, but says he ended up getting revenge years later.
The TV personality, who shot to fame on The X Factor in 2012, opened up about the encounter he had with the well-known name in a new interview.
Rylan alleged he overheard the big name talking about him behind his back during filming for Alan Carr's Chatty Man a year after appearing on the show.
He told The Sun : "Shortly after The X Factor I went on Chatty Man. There was a guest on the show who is quite a famous actor in this country.


"I could hear him slagging me off, going: ‘Why is that idiot on the show? He is an absolute this and that’. I let it go, but I always banked it.”
Rylan, who went on to become a household name in the UK, said years went by and he bumped into the actor at the National Television Awards.
"In 2016 and 2017, I was up for the NTA and they asked me to present an award. I go backstage and see this guy walking towards me," Rylan continued.
"He puts his hand out and says, 'Rylan, it is so nice to meet you. I am such a big fan.

"My daughters absolutely love you and they will kill me if I don’t get a photo with you. Please can we have a photo together?'"
The TV star added: "I had a little reality check and thought, ‘I either punch him or do the decent thing for the daughters’. So I said, ‘Yes, absolutely’.
"As I walked away, I turned around and said, ‘Mate, we have met before — on Chatty Man, in 2013. Do you remember slagging me off?’."
In recent weeks, Rylan made a weird revelation about his veneers after having them removed.
He shared that he wants to frame his shining veneers for all his guests to see.
"I've still got them, they're in a bag somewhere, I'm gonna get them framed," he told MailOnline.

The star went on to say his new ones are 'a lot more natural' and if he didn't have veneers, he'd look like a 'gummy t**t'.
He first announced he was getting new teeth after eight years of sporting veneers in November.
Writing on Twitter, the presenter said: "After 8 years. It hurts, so much, but sometimes you just have to let go. I’ve taken the decision to say goodbye… to my teeth [laughing emoji] new smile imminent [smiling emoji]".
He also took to Instagram to share the same message and also tagged cosmetic dentist, Dr Richard Marques, in the post.
