After submitting CVs, writing for local newspapers, and attending casting calls, he landed a role in the SIC show Noites Marcianas in 1999 as a "provocateur".[3]
Ramos gained visibility as a contributor and later co-host on the morning show Queridas Manhãs on SIC. From 2015 to 2020, he hosted Contra Capa on SIC Caras, and was a panelist on Passadeira Vermelha from 2016 to 2020. With the arrival of Cristina Ferreira at SIC, he joined O Programa da Cristina as a regular presence and substitute host.
On 10 February 2020, it was announced that Ramos had joined TVI to host Big Brother 2020. In 2021, he co-hosted Big Brother: Duplo Impacto with Teresa Guilherme, and began presenting Dois às 10 alongside Maria Botelho Moniz. Later that year, he also co-hosted Big Brother 2021 with Manuel Luís Goucha.
Personal life
