Social media is buzzing about the possible relationship between popular comedian Joe Lycett and superstar florist Simon Lycett.
What created this ongoing buzz? The reason is quite simple: both talented individuals share the same surname.
However, in spite of their shared last name, let us tell you that the individuals are unrelated.
