Alan Carr 'splits from boyfriend' after two months and is 'looking for love'
Alan Carr is back on the market and ‘looking for a chubby chaser’ after splitting with his hairdresser boyfriend.
The 47-year-old comedian has been unlucky in love since the collapse of his marriage in 2022. And while fans had been encouraged to see him going public with a younger man named Callum Heslop, 27, he has now revealed he is single again.
Alan recently took Callum on tour with him while he was performing stand-up in North America - and reports stated that he had introduced him to his close A-List friend Adele. But now the pair have gone their separate ways - realising they are better as “friends”.

If you know any chubby chasers, let me know.” Last November, Alan and Callum were first linked with the pair looking loved up while the TV star was on tour in the Americas.
Reports suggested the pair spent time at Adele's plush pad in LA for Thanksgiving dinner and Alan even appeared to go 'Instagram official' with Callum on the trip as he shared some sweet snaps of the pair living it up together.

Sources said at the time: “[Alan and Callum] have a really nice friendship and that has been the base for a relationship to blossom. He meets celebs through his job, so isn’t fazed. It takes a lot to introduce a partner to someone as famous as Adele but she couldn’t have been friendlier.”
Alan was previously married to party planner and actor Paul Drayton. The couple had been together for 13 years and married for three when news broke that their romance had come to an end in 2022. Alan mentioned the split during an interview in January of that year, saying: “My marriage broke down in lockdown. No, it's fine – people head tilt when you've got bad news.”
The couple confirmed their split with a joint statement, saying: “After 13 years as a couple and three years of marriage, Alan Carr and Paul Drayton would like to announce they are separating. They have jointly and amicably made the difficult decision to divorce and go their separate way.”
In early 2023, Alan spoke out about his relationship with his ex after their split, saying: “I don't hate him. It takes up too much energy. We have all got to move on.” He went on to explain he struggled with dating apps, saying: "People ask if I am doing the apps but I find it quite triggering… I used to work at a singles bar in Northampton and I was like the goat who gets lowered in that crate in Jurassic Park."
The Mirror approached Alan's spokesperson for comment.
