Claire Richards has taken to Instagram to poke fun at her friend Rylan, as she set out to showcase her newly decorated dining room.

The Steps singer, 45, uploaded a series of images to her feed, to show off her recent home renovations.

The first image in the post showed Claire’s dining room, which featured black and white vertical striped walls with a polished tiled floor.

A white dining table in the centre of the room was surrounded by plush black velvet chairs with silver knockers on the back.

A raised skylight in the ceiling ensured the room was well lit amid the black décor.

Claire had finished off her newly refreshed dining area with a few accessories, including a vase of puffy cotton flowers which she had placed in the middle of the table.

However, while her fans may well have been expecting to see more snaps of Claire’s home in the post, the following pictures were all screenshots of a video chat between Claire and Rylan.

One image was of the TV presenter’s face close up, while the following ones contained snaps of Rylan topless, trying to pull a white shirt over his head and failing.

Explaining the replacement of interiors pictures with those of her friend, Claire captioned the post: “PLEASE READ BEFORE SWIPING FOR CONTEXT (laughing face emoji).

“So today I decided I’d start documenting my kitchen/dining room renovation that I wanna do myself…….

“I started filming but put it on slo mo instead of time lapse -first fail! Then the storage was full after I’d scraped all the wallpaper off the walls, 2nd fail!

“So I’ve just spent ages deleting stuff off my phone to free up space and I thought I’d show you an example of the kind of stuff I found clogging up my phone preventing me from capturing the start of my decorating journey for you!

“@rylan thanks for the content (laughing face emojis)”.

Rylan took to the comment section with the reply: “That top was tight tbf”, with Claire replying: “erm!!!???”
