The Celebrity Big Brother Bit On The Side presenter announced he would be quitting the ITV show earlier this year after claiming he needed a “short break”.
However, at the time Rylan said he would be coming back, but it seems that Alison, 42, is none the wiser.
Speaking to Express.co.uk, the lovable presenter said: “I miss him on the show and I do a lot of presenting with him.
“I miss him and think he’s a lovely guy on the show but he’s destined for bigger and better things.
“He says, ‘Never say never’, and he might come back but I think someone else is going to grab him and he will sky rocket.”
Rylan, 29, has previously faced backlash for his short departure from This Morning and been forced to defend himself on Twitter.
In a since deleted tweet, the former X Factor star told his 1.5 million followers: “Rumours in press why I’m ‘leaving’ or been ‘axed’ from @thismorning. Truth is I need a break.
“I’ve been working constantly for 5 years and I need some time to myself. I’ll still be at Big Bro[ther]. I just need to take some time to myself.
“That’s all. I’ll be back soon xxx,” Rylan reassured.
