Alan Carr has been updating his tour show while on the road, because of changes to his 'personal life'

The 45-year-old comedian confirmed in January that he had split from husband Paul Drayton, and while he is enjoying being back on stage with the "insane" atmosphere, he has made some changes to his jokes.

When asked if it's good to be back on tour, he said: "I love it and the atmosphere on stage is insane.

"And it's weird for me, because of what's going on in my personal life, so I'm writing as I go along and changing it.

"So, it's interesting and it feels fresh. I'm getting a lot of love from the audience, which is wonderful."

Alan recently returned to host a second series of BBC show 'Interior Design Masters', and while a number of people got into interior design during the coronavirus pandemic lockdowns, he turned to jigsaws, bird-watching and astronomy.

But he mistook the planet Venus for his neighbour's security light.

He added to OK! magazine: "I actually started doing things I used to do - I regressed. I was doing jigsaws, bird-watching and I got an astronomy app so I could look up at the night sky.

"I thought I saw Venus, but it was my neighbour's security light."

In January, Alan announced he had made the "difficult decision" to part ways with Paul after 13 years as a couple and three years of marriage.

A spokesperson said: "After 13 years as a couple and three years of marriage, Alan Carr and Paul Drayton would like to announce they are separating.

"They have jointly and amicably made the difficult decision to divorce and go their separate ways. We request that their privacy is respected at this sensitive time."

Just five days later, Paul was jailed for drunkenly driving into a police car with an alcohol test reading "off the scale", but he was then freed just two days into his 14-week prison sentence.
