Joe Lycett Reveals Exactly What He Wants in an Ideal Partner in Unearthed Interview: The Notorious Private Comedian Stuns Fans by Confirming He Has Fathered a Child with a Mystery Girl

Joe Lycett revealed his ideal partner in a recent interview, stunning fans by confirming he has fathered a child with a mystery girl.

The 36-year-old comedian admitted that gender doesn’t matter when it comes to finding the perfect partner and he’s only interested in someone he can relax with.

Talking to Attitude in 2015 he said: “I tried Tinder. I’m not a very sexy person. I’m emotional.”

Of his ideal partner, he added: “Someone who will lie down and eat chocolate.” This is a dream.”

He also revealed that pansexuality is the sexual orientation he is closest to and that he is most attracted to a person’s hips.

Joe has kept his personal life private throughout his famous career and has revealed very little about past or current partners, but has hinted at what he is attracted to in a person.

He previously said: “I say bisexual because it’s easy for people to understand, but I don’t really think that’s true.

“Pansexuality seems to be the closest thing at the moment. In the sense that what attracts me changes depending on intangible things.

“Sometimes you just look at someone’s thighs and think, ‘Oh God, yes,’ but you’re not attracted to the other parts.

“It doesn’t really have to do with gender – it has to do with where you are, your upbringing and the kind of person you are. It’s really difficult, just like life.”

The interview comes after he surprised fans on Friday by revealing he is now a father by sharing a sweet snap of himself holding his newborn son on Instagram.

The news comes after the TV comedian opened up about his romance with his mystery partner, which he first revealed in April.

Alongside the image, Joe wrote on Instagram: “A thank you post from me in honor of the wonderful hospital @bham_womens.”

“My first encounter with them was many years ago when they cared for a friend of mine during surgery, and more recently when they expertly welcomed into the world a little boy who turned out to be my son.

“The care and compassion he and his mom received was exceptional; from antenatal classes, wonderful midwives, consultants, doctors, nurses and ongoing care in the community. We also really liked their baked potatoes. Birmingham is very lucky to have them and I will be forever grateful for everything they have done.

“I love being a dad, but unfortunately I think that now means I can’t give up Rob and Josh’s damn podcast. “We will not be accepting any press inquiries on this matter as we have already sold the rights to the first family photo to Autotrader.”

The adorable image shows Joe putting his black coat on the baby, who is wearing a blue knit hat, as they stroll outside.

The star can be seen looking tenderly at her baby boy as she gently holds him to her chest.

Fans were quick to congratulate the comedian, although many suspected it could have been an elaborate joke, which the star is well known for.

Comments included: “I can’t tell if this is satire, but I’m here for it either way.”

“I congratulate you, but I also think it’s you, and it could very well be the puppy/kitten/gearbox in that hat.”

“Congratulations!! (unless this is an elaborate joke, in which case congratulations!)’

“I never know what’s real and what’s not when Lycette is involved.”

However, Birmingham Women’s Hospital added a heartfelt comment that read: “Congratulations again to you all. We are so proud to support you through this incredible, life-changing journey. We wish you all the best and many great hugs in the future.”

While several other celebrities, including Judy Love, Clara Amfo and John Waite, sent messages of congratulations.

The news comes after Joe recently opened up about his sexuality and opened up about his secret girlfriend Denise.

Talking about Bimini Bon-Bulash’s podcast The PiecesJoe has shared a rare insight into his personal life, revealing he used a fake name for his partner to keep her identity a secret.

He said: “So I have a cat, Winston, and my partner, Denise. And, um, her name isn’t Denise, but I’m not talking about her because she has a job where she can’t be seen.

“I call her Denise because she hates the name Denise, so I live with Denise.”

Joe, who has been open about his sexuality in the past, then went on to talk to former RuPaul’s Drag Race star about his pansexuality.

He shared, “Well, it’s interesting to be in a long-term relationship with a woman right now because a lot of people are like, ‘Excuse me, what?’ There was a short period when I was in school when I thought that because I was attracted to men, I was gay, and then I thought, “Hey, hey, hey, wait.”

“Then I use the term bisexual when someone asks, and I just want to give a quick answer because people get it.

“But I think the most accurate way to describe myself is pansexual, because I’m not attracted to people just because of their gender.”

Joe went on to say that he has a hard time explaining his sexuality at times, adding: “I also don’t really understand how it works because I don’t know how it works?” That is, I don’t know how it works, for example, explaining it to idiots. Because it’s kind of hard to go, well, no, I’m sometimes attracted to men, but not all men. And this is not always due to the fact that they are men.

“It often happens that a good torso is enough, you know? Small abs. Yes, that’s all. Lines. The torso is dangerous. A wonderful hand.

“Yeah, it doesn’t matter what gender or anything. And I don’t know why that is, but it is. This is strange because to me it suggests that sexuality is not just about men and women.

“So the intellectual side of me is: it’s pansexual, and that means everything. That’s how I feel about myself.”

Joe spoke about his new love for the first time during the latest episode of his show Late evening Lycett is on Channel 4.

Opening the speech, he said:A lot has changed since the last episode, I have news: I have a girlfriend.

“I’ve been talking about being bisexual for years, but people assume I’m gay based on my whole personality… yeah, I have a girlfriend and people are really okay with that.”

Joe also joked that he received a letter from the Pope regarding his new relationship, which said: “One downside.”

Joe is often known for his high-profile stunts, including when he changed his name to Hugo Boss in 2020.

He also spent £10,000 in a high-profile row with David Beckham, whom he criticized for being Qatar’s ambassador during the 2022 World Cup.
