Ricky, who frequently goes viral online for his comedic shirtless bath selfies, took to X - formerly known as Twitter - to hilariously recreate Hugh's own photograph. He shared one of his iconic selfies showing himself half-submerged in the bath and pulling a comedic expression as he poked fun at Hugh's own offering.
