Gogglebox star Stephen Webb has been branded “creepy” and “inappropriate” by Celebs Go Dating viewers for making rude comments about his date.

The 53-year-old TV personality shocked fans on Monday when she was seen choosing footballer Ben, 22, to go on a date with.

And on Tuesday’s episode, the pair sat down for drinks to get to know each other – however, it didn’t get off to a great start as Ben revealed he wasn’t feeling well.

Things didn’t change when Stephen asked Ben what his favourite position to play in football was, to which the TV star replied: “Doggy?” After an awkward silence, Stephen added: “You’re a bit conventional, aren’t you babe? I like it when it’s tucked up.”

The conversation seemed to improve when Ben talked about coming out at 18 and the difficulties of doing so in a football environment, but Stephen then faked a yawn before declaring that Ben “needed his nappy changed” when he went to the toilet.

Fans of the show were not impressed by Stephen’s comments and took to X, formerly Twitter, to share their thoughts.

They wrote: ‘OMG Stephen can you be any more embarrassing?’; ‘I loved Stephen on the Goggle box but this is embarrassing as f**k!’;

“Steven seems creepy and inappropriate”; “This is so weird, he’s old enough to be her father”;

—No, Stephen, stop it. You’re making a fool of yourself. No wonder this poor boy ran off. I would have left.

Celebs Go Dating returned to screens on Monday night with a new cast of stars keen to find their soul mate.

But things weren’t so easy for Helen Flanagan, as she accidentally flirted with a gay man and called herself a “psychopathic bitch” in front of a potential date.

The series began with a Bridgerton-inspired masquerade ball as celebrities walked around the room.

Actress Helen, 34, was joined by Jamelia, Gogglebox’s Stephen, MAFS UK’s Ella Morgan, Love Island’s Chris Taylor, MIC star Tristan Phipps and Lauryn Goodman.

But Stephen then faked a yawn before declaring that Ben “needed his diaper changed” when he went to the bathroom.

She has had a hard time re-entering the dating world after splitting from her ex Scott Sinclair, who is the father of her three children.

While mingling with the singles, things got off to a bad start because the masks “made her lose the gay radar” and she was constantly oversharing.

After chatting with the gay man, Helen laughed off her mishap and headed off to another single guy, although that didn’t go as planned either.

After jumping straight into the conversation and talking about her ex, she added: “I can be sweet. Depending on the time of the month, I’m either charming or a psychopath.”

“Well, I hope it’s not that time now…” the masked stranger joked awkwardly.

Moving on to another, she then blurted out: “It’s really really hot, isn’t it? I feel like my boobs are sweaty!”

Commenting on Helen’s conversations, experts assessed: “Oh no, here she goes again. Do you think this is her way of diverting the topic?”

“Could he be trying to make them laugh… or is this his way of saying they don’t stand a chance?” they questioned.

At the end of the meeting, Helen decided to go on a date with sports masseur Luke after their “flirty chat and smooth conversation.”
