Gok Wan on his relationship with Holby City’s David Ames: ‘I love to watch him laugh’

Fans of the pair have even called for them to get married!

Gok Wan credits his friendships as his big success in life – and one of his best pals is Holby City’s David Ames.

The TV fashionista, 47, has previously said he loves nothing more than to hang out with David, who played Dr Dominic Copeland in the now-cancelled BBC medical drama.

Gok and David enjoy watching telly when they are together, especially 80s American sitcom The Golden Girls.

In a previous interview with YOU magazine, Gok said: “Without question my biggest success is my friendships.

“One of my closest friends is actor David Ames. When he comes to my house, we sit and watch the comedy show The Golden Girls together.

“I can’t think of anything I like to do more than sit and watch him laugh. It is one of my favourite things in the world.”

In the past, Gok and 38-year-old David have been at the centre of romance rumours.

The pair have never confirmed if they ever were or are in a relationship now, but David recently proved he and Gok are still very much friends.

In a social media post, he even described the How To Look Good Naked star as one of his “favourites”.

It is Big Zuu’s first show since he scooped two BAFTAs at last Sunday’s ceremony in London, so there is lots to celebrate with Gok.

The grime MC-turned-TV chef won both the Best Entertainment Performance and Best Feature categories for his show Big Zuu’s Big Eats.

Big Zuu was stunned, announcing to the audience: “What? Man said you won a BAFTA? You mad? What are you talking about?”
