The resident doctor said he gets regular fashion advice from Gok Wan and presenter Holly Willoughby, 41, often asks questions about her children’s health.
Speaking to The Sun, Dr Ranj said: “It’s like choosing a favourite child, we have a Whatsapp group, I love them all.
“It’s like a family Whatsapp group where we ask each other advice.
“I get fashion advice from Gok, we get cooking advice, Bryony gives us makeup tips, obviously me and Zoe give medical advice and Sharon shares all the soap drama.
“Holly [Willoughby] messages me about advice about the kids, kids have all sorts of coughs and colds that parents worry about.
“It’s really nice that we have this relationship off the show that we can just ask each other anything and drop each other a message.”
Dr Ranj also spoke about the shock incident last month when he was robbed on his way home from the Brit Awards 2022.
He admitted that it’s made him more wary of fans who approach him now – saying he has his guard up.

“That was interesting, it was after an event I was out walking to a taxi, basically someone stole my watch,” he explained.
“Really strange, someone came up to me and I thought they were asking for help.
“So your natural reaction is to listen, he went to shake my hand, hold my hand and thought okay that’s a bit odd and before I knew it my watch had gone.
The medical professional said he regrets chasing after the individual – but is relieved that it wasn’t a lot worse.
“I noticed it too late because it was too fast and you don’t expect that to happen,” the TV star said.
“It could have been so much worse and I did the silly thing where I chased after him and you should never do that because my brother told me that it’s sometimes a honey trap, where they will do something that will lead you somewhere and it can be so much worse.
“I tried and then gave up, it has made me more careful and cautious, especially in London.
“I’ve grown to feel quite safe and I think that it’s just a reminder in places that you feel safe you let your guard down.”
He added: “It’s made me more streetwise and a little more wary, the nice thing is that people come up and say hello and your natural reaction is to greet them, I think I just kind of fell for it.”
