Craig Revel Horwood’s Shocking Confession: Which Strictly Judge Is His Only Friend?
Craig Revel Horwood has strengthened his sharp criticism towards his fellow judges on Strictly Come Dancing.
60-year-old Strictly contestant expressed criticism towards past panelists Len Goodman, Arlene Phillips, as well as current judges Shirley Ballas (age 64), Anton Du Beke (age 58), and Motsi Mabuse (age 43).
As a devoted fan, I’m sharing that Craig has been quite enthusiastic about embodying the villain in his recent performances. He’s even gone so far as to make a bold confession about it.
He told The Sun: ‘There is no other judge. I created it. They are either dead or have been sacked.’
During a recent chat with Lizzie Cundy, this popular television personality highlighted the remarks he’s been making about his fellow stars lately.
Craig has also reportedly body-shamed Shirley back in 2018.


Shirley mentioned that Craig offered a deeply apologetic explanation following allegations he made about her, claiming she exposed her chest during an audition intended to replace Len.
As a die-hard admirer, let me share with you an intriguing tidbit from Craig’s autobiography promotion event: ‘Apparently, during the audition, she showcased her midriff that extended all the way to her navel. Believe it or not, this isn’t a joke!’
‘Her breasts were hanging out like watermelons, not very modest. So, they came in and stitched everything closed. Afterward, they had to push them back in… and they’re artificial.’
Lizzie said: ‘You’ve spoken about them [the judges] a bit!’
‘I was having a bit of fun with the audience but yeah I did say that stuff’, Craig admitted.
Lizzie playfully responded, “Oh, that reminds me, I decided it was a good day to stay indoors and relax, after our conversation about Shirley.” Adjusting her dress, she added a touch of humor to the situation.
Craig added: ‘It was all very tongue and cheek and with a wink, darling’.
In 2004, when the popular dance show first premiered, the performer was one of the initial judges on the panel, joining Len, Arlene, and Bruno Tonioli (then aged 59) as fellow judges.








Regarding Craig’s recent questionable remarks, it’s worth noting that he holds Bruno in high regard, going so far as to say they remain close friends. In fact, among all judges, Bruno is the only one with whom Craig maintains a friendship.
Discussing their shared passion for opera, Lizzie proposed that they collaborate on a fresh project in the future, emphasizing her desire to team up with Bruno.
He said: ‘He is a mad opera fan. Maybe we should do a show together.’
It didn’t take much time for Craig to harshly strike out at Bruno, confessing that collaborating with him was unbearably difficult.
Craig remarked, “Let’s face it, I’ve been on a journey with him, and it was agony. Whenever people ask if I’ll join Bruno for another travel show, I usually respond, ‘I don’t think so, love.’
‘It was hilarious. [He was] constantly complaining, I am the calm, he is the chaos.’
The complete interview can be watched on Lizzie’s freshly launched program airing on Amazon Prime and also on Heard, the newly introduced platform.
This version aims to convey the same meaning as the original sentence in easy-to-read language.
