Rylan Clark-Neal posts rare update to celebrate his brother's wedding after his own split

Rylan-Clark Neal has shared a rare social media update in a bid to pay tribute to his brother after his wedding day.

The former X Factor star and much-loved TV personality took to Instagram on Thursday to gush over his sibling Jamie, who tied the knot with his long-term love Jayne in a special ceremony.

It comes as Rylan has kept a low-profile on social media following the breakdown of his marriage with husband Dan Neal.

Celebrating his brother, the TV presenter shared a gorgeous snap of the newlyweds on their special day as Rylan’s new sister-in-law can be seen beaming as she gazes into her husband’s eyes.

Alongside the sweet snap, Rylan, 32, gushed over his brother’s incredible bond with his new wife.

“After 32 years (genuinely!) my actual age (again genuinely!) they’ve finally done it.

“Congratulations to my brother and sister-in-law. Love you both,” he penned.

Rylan was seen for the first time since his marriage breakdown as he attended his brother’s big day in Essex earlier this week.

The former X Factor star took an extended break from social media after he broke the news that he and Dan have decided to call it quits on their marriage.

After his announcement, Rylan took a two-month hiatus but decided it was time to return to his fans in July when he thanked them for their ‘love and kindness’ in an emotional post.

The much-loved star admitted that although he had endured a difficult couple of months, the kind and thoughtful messages he received from fans on the daily kept him going.

“I just wanted to write a message to thank you all for the love and kindness you have shown us,” Rylan shared.

“We are currently prioritising our mental health and looking after the ones around us we love the most. I am working towards getting back to the jobs I love in due course.”

Rylan and Dan are reported to have gone their separate ways in June.

It comes almost six years after they tied the knot.

The presenter confirmed the speculation about the split was true and blamed himself over their break-up in a heartfelt statement.

He said that he was "in a bad place" and was "seeking help" over mistakes he made.

Dan is said to have moved out of their home into a rented apartment in Essex.

Rylan recently returned to work this week with his own podcast after a 90-day break following his marriage split.

The new podcast series, called The Ry-Union, will see the Strictly It Takes Two host chatting to a host of celebs with his pal Katie Price taking the hot seat in week one.
