This Morning viewers upset over cougar guest’s “wizard’s sleeve” comment

Rylan's face was worth the offence!

| Updated:

It takes a lot to rile Rylan Clark-Neal, but he got more than he bargained for on today’s show during a segment with a cougar.

That’s a woman who likes her men younger, rather than the wild cat variety…

June Smith, who is 53, recently wrote a controversial article detailing her 250 dates with toy boys.

And she came on the sofa to discuss it with Rylan and his co-host Alison Hammond.

“I’ve never been focused on young men, it’s just the men who have asked me out happen to be young,” June claimed.

Rylan quipped: “We’re talking 250 toy boys here.”

“Yeah, but we’re talking about dates, not sleeping with people” June stressed. “There’s a lot of difference with going on dates.

“You have to go on a lot of dates before you meet someone to be in a relationship with.”

So far, so reasonable. And THEN she said this…

“We’re not talking wizard sleeves, if you know what I mean.”

Well, yes, June, we do know what you mean. Anyone reading who doesn’t best head to an online urban dictionary… we’re way to embarrassed to tell you.

Well, perhaps a clue… it’s a euphemism for lady parts of a certain condition. Now consider the shape of a wizard’s sleeve… yep, you’re right there.

Classy, June. Reeeeeeal classy. She could just have said she didn’t sleep with them all!

Not too surprisingly, viewers didn’t really appreciate the mental image she, er, conjured up and showed their disgust on Twitter.

“WIZARD’S SLEEVE?!?! Is that what she actually means?” wrote one.

Another commented: “Bit early to be discussing wizard’s sleeves, isn’t it?”

A third said: “Did I just hear the self-professed ‘cougar queen’ refer to her ‘wizard’s sleeve’? on #ThisMorning.”

Later in the show there was more biting of the cheek-insides when viewers were shown how to trim their bushes.

Oof, we need a lie down.
