Rylan Clark has revealed the shocking extent of damage to his garden after extreme weather wreaked havoc on the sprawling grounds of his Essex mansion.

The Met Office issued a yellow weather warning for Monday (April 15) that covered nearly all of England and the entirety of Wales and Northern Ireland, warning of high winds, with gusts of up to 55mph.

Taking to Instagram on Monday, the BBC Radio 2 presenter, 35, posted a picture of a giant tree that had fallen, narrowly missing his property after crashing into a waterfall feature that forms part of a pond.

“Safe to say it’s windy out!” he quipped in the accompanying caption.

There was word as yet on how he intends to handle the situation, but he clearly wasn’t impressed, adding: “For f**k’s sake!”

Nature and the elements seem attracted to the former X Factor finalist and his plush pad.

He has previously shared his terror after discovering a snake had invaded his home and was hysterical as he appealed to his followers for help in how to best handle the situation.

Earlier this year, he was left fearing for his life again after a bat landed on his hand when he opened his door.

The East London-born star again turned to his followers for help after working himself into a frenzy having made the school boy error of Googling the consequences of coming into contact with bats.

He was further alarmed when the internet search engine results suggested he needed medical help.
