Alan Carr's husband calls him 'chunky'

Alan Carr has revealed his husband\'s "awful" nicknames for him.

The 44-year-old comedian - who has been married to Paul Drayton since 2018 - shared the cheeky monikers his man has given him, including naming him Bungle, the large furry bear from hit 70s show \'Rainbow\'.

Speaking on Radio 2\'s \'Alan & Mel Show\' with co-host Melanie Sykes, he said: "They\'re awful ones... Chubs, the Chubster, Chunky, Bunkle - you know, Carrbunkle - Bunkley.

"Paul my other half - he says, \'Here he is, here\'s Bunkle.\' I\'m called the Carrbunkle - and let\'s not forget Bungle from Rainbow."

Mel then asked Alan what he\'d like to be called, to which he replied: "I\'d like to be called Butch."

His co-host laughed and teased: "That\'s never going to happen!"

The couple have been together for a decade, and tied the knot in Los Angeles two years ago in Adele\'s backyard.

The singer also officiated the ceremony and embraced her role in charge of the big day, as Alan compared it to Jennifer\'s 2001 movie \'The Wedding Planner\'.

He said: "It was amazing. Adele organised it in her back garden in LA - it was absolutely gorgeous and she paid for it all. I tried to give her some money and she said, \'My treat ahahahaha\'.

"She\'s just adorable. She\'s the sweetest person. I get asked a lot of loaded questions about her, like, \'Has she changed? I suppose you don\'t see much of her now...?\'

"But she has not changed one bit and she always has time for you. She\'ll always pop in for a cup of tea or a glass of wine."

Asked if he asked her to officiate the ceremony, he added: "She offered. She brought her clipboard out and said, \'I feel like Jennifer Lopez in \'The Wedding Planner.\' "
