Rylan shares honest snap without makeup or filters as fans compliment barefaced look

Rylan Clark has been complimented by fans after sharing a photo of himself without makeup or a filter, showcasing his freckles among other features on social media today.

The presenter, 33, took to Instagram this afternoon with a barefaced selfie – telling his 1.6 million followers on the platform that it was a "no filter day" in the caption.

It showed Rylan posing shirtless, with him having written notes alongside the selfie to signal features like his freckles, which he said were courtesy of a recent trip to Barcelona.

He also suggested that it showed off his "real" eyes as well as a mark that was visible on his face, which he said was a "bite" – teasing that it was from a spider or a shark.

Rylan also shared the photo on his Instagram Story earlier, where he captioned it: "Face off. No makeup or filter." He added "literally could be 12 babe" and #rough to it.

After sharing the photo, he posted videos to further discuss bites found on his body, writing in the caption of one: "Instantly went to add a filter on, but stopped myself."

Looking at a mark on his face, he said: "Look at that. I think that's like a snake or something." He then continued to comment on his physical appearance in a follow-up video.

Rylan – who's among the names rumoured to host the Big Brother reboot – added: "So not only have I been biten by a shark or something on my face, but a spider on my neck."
