Rylan Clark has made an unexpected return to the This Morning sofa, just six months after a controversial on-air segment prompted hundreds of complaints to Ofcom.

The broadcaster’s decision to bring Rylan back has immediately divided viewers. While some welcomed his familiar presence and praised his warmth on screen, others questioned why he had been invited to return so soon after the earlier backlash.

At the time, Rylan faced criticism following comments made during a discussion about migration, which some viewers said were inappropriate for the programme’s daytime audience. ITV later confirmed that complaints had been received, though no formal outcome was announced publicly.

Now, his reappearance has reignited debate across social media, with audiences split between support and renewed calls for accountability. ITV has not yet commented on the decision behind his return.
