Strictly Come Dancing professional Katya Jones has recently expressed her support for former contestant and partner Wynne Evans after reports he is not taking part in the show's live tour

Katya Jones has voiced her support for her "darling boy" Wynne Evans following his departure from the Strictly Come Dancing tour amid scandal. The Welsh opera singer came under fire over the weekend for making a crude joke to dancer and host Janette Manrara during the launch of the tour earlier this month.

Katya Jones has thrown her support behind dancing partner Wynne Evans after he stepped down from the 'Strictly Come Dancing' live tour. The 53-year-old opera singer - who is best known for appearing in the GoCompare adverts - competed on the BBC Latin and ballroom show with Katya last year and had been starring in the nationwide tour alongside his fellow contestants but he quit this week after it emerged that he had made a comment that was deemed sexually inappropriate during a photo call.

Katya Jones has reacted to Wynne Evans’s departure from the Strictly Come Dancing tour over a crass remark about professional dancer Janette Manrara. The Welsh opera singer faced a backlash after being caught making a sexual remark about Janette Manrara and EastEnders actor Jamie Borthwick during the tour’s press launch.
