Rylan Clark has opened up about seeing some of his friends get ‘cancelled’ as he warned people ‘don’t believe everything you read’.<\/p>\n
The X Factor and This Morning star is the latest famous face set to be seen taking on the popular ITV<\/a> series The Assembly. Premiering last year, the series sees a group of inquisitive interviewers who are autistic, neurodivergent and\/or learning disabled put questions to celebrities.<\/p>\n It was praised by viewers for being a heartwarming and insightful series, with the first batch of episodes seeing the likes of Doctor Who legend David Tennant, pop singer Jade Thirlwall and former EastEnders<\/a> actor Danny Dyer answering a series of hard-hitting questions. Series two kicked off last month.<\/p>\n Click here<\/a> to get the biggest stories straight to your inbox in our Daily Newsletter<\/strong><\/p>\n To date, viewers have seen<\/a> former QI host Stephen Fry, former Scottish First Minister Nicola Sturgeon, comedian Sir Lenny Henry, Line of Duty\u2019s Anna Maxwell Martin and Manchester rapper Aitch take the hot seat. After several weeks away, The Assembly is back on Saturday night (May 23).<\/p>\n Answering a series of questions on topics such as cheating on his former husband Dan Neal, coming out to his mum Linda and navigating being famous, one poignant moment saw a man named Jacob ask him how he \u2018copes when one of your celebrity friends is cancelled\u2019.<\/p>\n Rylan <\/a>responded: \u201cIt\u2019s really tough, especially because some of them are not just my work friends, they\u2019re genuinely some of my best friends. At the end of the day, if someone\u2019s done something wrong, I understand why they can\u2019t carry on doing what they\u2019re doing.<\/p>\n Scott Mills and Rylan Clark <\/p>\n \u201cI do feel today, we live in a world where people will want to go for you and cancel you just for the sake of just doing it because they can. Don\u2019t always believe what you hear or read. Don\u2019t be fighting to ask why.\u201d<\/p>\n It\u2019s unclear just who Rylan is referring to, due to the exact time the episode was filmed not being shared. However, earlier in the month he did travel to Austria for the Eurovision Song Contest <\/a>without Scott Mills.<\/p>\n Rylan and Scott commentated on the annual singing competition together for a number of years, with them featuring on the television coverage of the semi-finals and the radio coverage of the grand final. However, last month saw Mills dropped by the BBC<\/a> shortly before it emerged the Metropolitan Police launched an investigation into him in 2016 over allegations of serious sexual offences involving a teenage boy under 16 between 1997 and 2000.<\/p>\n The BBC has admitted it knew about a police investigation into allegations of a historical sexual offence in 2017 but said it ‘acted decisively’ after receiving ‘new information’ in the weeks before his sacking.<\/p>\n![](\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/0_ECR_090525_eurovisionsemifinal.jpg\")
