From: Favorite Hunks & Other Things
It is too bad US boy bands don't show as much skin as their counter parts around the globe. Can you imagine if they did! Posting about Duncan James from the UK band Blue today made me think of Lee Ryan, another member of the group who certainly did not mind dropping his pants whenever the impulse arose! Love me some Lee!!!
Lee Ryan (born 17 June 1983) is an English singer-songwriter and actor. He is known as a member of the British boy band Blue.
Lee Ryan was born in Chatham, Kent. His parents split up when he was six years old. Ryan mostly lived with his mother, sister Gemma and his grandmother. At the age of 5 it was discovered that he suffered from dyslexia. Ryan went to Bedonwell School before attending performing arts schools, including the independent fee-paying theatre schools Sylvia Young Theatre School and Italia Conti Academy of Theatre Arts.
In the aftermath of the 11 September attacks in New York City, Ryan roused controversy by claiming whaling and elephant hunting were "more important" issues. In a publicity interview with the BBC, he asked "What about whales? They are ignoring animals that are more important. Animals need saving and that's more important. This New York thing is being blown out of proportion," adding "Who gives a fuck about New York when elephants are being killed?" when consternated bandmates attempted to close him down. On 22 August 2003, Ryan was banned from driving for 18 months and fined £2,250 as a consequence of drunk driving. On 31 December 2007, he was arrested for an assault on a taxi driver in Oxted, Surrey. He was released on bail until February 2008. At Guildford Magistrates' Court on 24 June 2008 he was fined £300. He claimed in court "he felt targeted because he is 'famous' ".
In June 2008, Ryan announced he was engaged to hairdresser Samantha Millar, having met her on Myspace. Their son was born in November 2008.
In August of 2010, Ryan was charged with assault after allegedly hitting Millar. The charges were later dropped, and the couple separated.
In Celebrity Big Brother 13 (2014), he described himself as single with kids.
