Captioning the post in view of his 2.3 million followers, Rylan wrote: “Back from a quick work trip to LA. Filming something special. So much fun. Coming Christmas time….” with the post also giving a little glimpse at the festive setting his found himself in, which came before Halloween has even arrived.
It wasn’t until Tuesday morning (November 19) that Rylan revealed all as he took to Instagram with a gorgeous photo of himself and none other than Christmas queen Mariah Carey.
Alongside the post, which saw Rylan posing for a smiling snap withj Mariah before showing their matching Christmas stockings and a vinyl edition of her Christmas album she’d signed for him, the 36-year-old revealed to his fans and followers: “Mariah meets Rylan. This December. @bbctwo @bbciplayer.”
