Ant and Dec: We're not gay!

TV stars declare sexuality on US show

Ant and Dec are hoping to make Wanna Bet a huge success in the US

Anthony McPartlin and Declan Donnelly have had to make clear the nature of ther friendship to American audiences.

The cheesy duo sparked speculation about their sexuality when they launched new TV show Wanna Bet in the States.

Viewers thought their camp performances meant they were gay, reports Daily Star Sunday.

‘How refreshing to see 2 gay guys hosting a mainstream network show,' one viewer wrote on a web forum. 'They’re so cute.’

But Ant and Dec, 32, set the record straight during an interview on ABC’s Jimmy Kimmel Live show.

‘We’re not together like that,’ Ant explains putting an arm around Dec.

‘We’re together like this,’ he says, shaking Dec’s hand.

Ant, 32, celebrated his second wedding anniversary with wife Lisa last month.
