Calum Best caught breaking lockdown rules as he joins a friend for a workout at his gym

CALUM Best broke lockdown rules yesterday when he headed for a workout at a pal's gym - and posed for a picture next to him.

The 39-year-old Celebrity Big Brother star stood beside friend James Cooper, who shared the shot, writing: "Always a pleasure having you down."

A rep for Calum told The Sun Online that they trained together at James' private gym.

The pair have been friends for years, with the personal trainer helping him to get in shape for one of his charity boxing bouts back in 2018.

Under current social distancing rules, Brits are not allowed to work out in gyms.

People are allowed to exercise as much as they like - but only outdoors and when keeping two metres away from anyone outside their household.

However, given that people are now allowed to meet one other person from a different household outdoors, it is likely to be a misunderstanding of the rules.

Personal trainer James offers workouts to the stars through his London-based BTX fitness empire.

Calum is a TV personality and former party animal who relocated from Los Angeles to the UK when he was 21, going on to appear on a string of reality show including the original Love Island.

His father is Northern Irish footballing legend George Best, who died aged 59 in 2005 when Calum was 24.
