Express.co.uk, Roman said he caused an “argument” after announcing he would not buy a Christmas tree last year.He said: “To be fair, there are always moments every now and again where you say something and you get a hell of a lot of texts come through…“Or it's like, ‘We disagree’ or something like that… Like, I caused such an argument the other day because I said throughout Christmas, I was like, ‘I’m a single guy.

I'm not going to put up a Christmas tree.’“I was like, ‘I live on my own, no one’s going to see it other than me. I don't need to put one up.’“And like so many people got so angry about it.So moments like that always happen.”Roman also admitted to having been “put on the spot” by singer Ed Sheeran during an interview.He explained: “Although in terms of honesty, Ed Sheeran put me on the spot recently because he made me name his albums in my favourite order, including which ones I think are bad.“Oh, and that's tough.

I did it, but it's tough.”Roman also revealed where he wants his career to be headed, as well as how he wants to use his influence for a cause close to his heart.The presenter released last year the documentary Our Silent Emergency on BBC One, which explores the mental health and suicide crisis affecting young men.He said: I've been doing a lot of work around mental health and things like that, and I've quite liked to do some of that this year.“I think there are a few things that are achievable.“I think in terms of making mental health a bigger thing within schools and trying to speak to as many people as I can to get some movement going in the government because it just feels so slow.”He continued: “And that is an answer that I did not think I would give you two years ago.“But weirdly, that day was.
