LOVE Island star Chris Taylor has exclusively told The Sun of his “biggest lesson” learned on Celebs Go dating after being branded the show’s “worst dater.”
The All Stars cheeky chap was alerted by Paul Carrick Brunson about using humour as a “coping mechanism.”
And while Barbie movie star Chris told The Sun he “absolutely” hasn’t lost his signature wit, he admitted it has been tempered due to lessons learned on Celebs Go Dating.
When asked if he’d ditched the jokes he told us: “Oh absolutely not.
“It’s more of a controlled thing now, so the point that Paul’s making is I would often, instead of answering a deep question about my childhood or my family, make a joke.
“But I wont be doing that any more.”
Talking of his change in response, he added: “I say ‘respectfully I’m not comfortable enough to answer that question.’
“Or, I just answer it. So that’s my growth.”
His co-star Tristan Phipps, who was also present at the chat, then said Chris had “come on leaps and bounds” with his emotional maturity.
A chuffed Chris then said: “Thank you. My boy.”
The pair recently revealed the real reason for their clash on-screen.
It came after Chris was accused of “disrespecting” women on the TV series.
He left viewers stunned after discussing his pubic hair during a mixer with other singletons.
This led him to be dubbed the “worst dater” – and sparked a slew of comments on X.
One wrote on X: “Just turned on tv and in my recording is this. Shocked I did not realise it was back on and even more shocked first time not excited by the line up. Especially annoying Chris from LI. Yet again Rob Beckett will be the star.”
“Chris can’t be serious with these chat up lines,” a second added.
“Love Island bloke appears to be a right pillock,” echoed a third.
Celebs Go Dating continues at 9pm tonight on E4
