Clearing thrilled to be catching some rays while supposed to be ‘working’, Richard shared a sun-drenched photo with his 85,500 followers.

In it, he’s lounging next to David Tag, aka Sylver McQueen.

Alongside the photo, where both men are sunbathing, Richard joked: “It’s like looking in a mirror. Copping a load of @davidtagofficial filming my @hollyoaksofficial cameo #setlife #fridayfunday #hollyoaks #gmb #itv #c4.”

Richard really rubbed our noses in it, when he shared another photo presenting from the set of Love Island!

He revealed he’d enjoyed “a night on the tiles with the @hollyoaksofficial cast ahead of filming a cameo with the McQueens on their hen night”.

On Good Morning Britain on Thursday (14 June), Ross – who plays Scott Drinkwell on the soap – confirmed the news just hours before Richard jetted to Mallorca to film the scenes.

Richard joked: “I’ve been sent the script which involves me being by a swimming pool. Just what I need after watching Love Island this week, to be half naked with a load of people half my age.”

He will be following in the footsteps of previous cameo stars Alan Carr, Nick Grimshaw and fellow GMB host Kate Garraway.

Gossip lover Richard hasn’t yet let slip what three mystery cast members will be joining the McQueens on their adventures abroad too.

It’s only a matter of time, though…
