Strictly Come Dancing star Katya Jones makes a VERY flirty comment to Wynne Evans as they become favourites for the axe  - after awkward live show 'hand incident'

As a seasoned observer of human dynamics and public discourse, I find myself intrigued by this unfolding saga of Wynne Evans and Katya Jones on Strictly Come Dancing. Having spent decades delving into the nuances of social interactions, I must say that the incident between them seems to be a classic case of a joke gone awry, misinterpreted by some sensitive viewers.


On air, Katya Jones playfully displayed her captivating charisma with a flirtatious remark directed towards her dance partner on Strictly Come Dancing, Wynne Evans.

On Wednesday, the 35-year-old dance specialist joined the opera vocalist on her BBC Radio Wales morning program for a friendly conversation about their preferred musicians.

In our chat, Wynne openly acknowledged that while he went to a Taylor Swift concert and bought some of her merchandise, he doesn’t consider himself an extremely dedicated or passionate fan.

Katya expressed her feelings by saying: “I recall having a Beyonce shirt, yet it seems one doesn’t automatically become a big fan just because they own such a shirt.

‘I’ve got loads of yours,’ she cheekily added.

After it was made known that the dance duo might get eliminated from Strictly during the results show on Sunday, as per the predictions by bookmakers.

Originally considered a strong contender for the Glitterball Trophy, opera singer Wynne now has odds of 5/1 for elimination from the competition this week. Last week, his chances were listed at 25/1 in the same betting market.

Katya clarified her famous companion, stating that he was misrepresented, implying he wasn’t the person portrayed; they maintained the “playful hand gesture” incident was just a harmless prank.

During his Monday night television interview, Wynne acknowledged that he had re-watched the video of the event and conceded: “It’s easy to understand why some might have misunderstood it.

Tightly gripping his arm, Katya expressed her discomfort over the harsh criticism her fellow actor is receiving, adding that she felt sincere compassion since she believes he has done nothing wrong.

She stated: ‘It’s completely absurd to think I felt uncomfortable or offended by anything. If anyone has misgivings, they must be mistaken. I hope this puts an end to it once and for all, and continue to bring a smile to my face.’

She added: ‘I can’t sit here watching this man being portrayed as someone he’s not. In fact, it couldn’t be further away from the truth.

‘I need to clarify that the entire event involving the hand gesture and the high-five on Saturday night was just an inside joke shared between Wynne and me. Was it a bit silly? Definitely, and also a bit inappropriate?’

Due to the incident, there was significant worry within the higher-ups at BBC, especially since they had been dealing with allegations of improper behavior in past shows for quite some time. As a result, an investigation focused on employee wellbeing was initiated.

According to a source, each member of the duo received a visit from the Strictly Welfare Team to make sure everything was in order and that they were both content to proceed with their partnership.

The team working in the research room maintains detailed records of all the rehearsals carried out by famous duos, including Wynne and Katya, who are just like any other pair.

If the welfare team noticed any signs of misconduct or issues requiring attention, they would have brought it to our notice.

‘There hasn’t been and they consider the matter closed.’

The BBC confirmed that no further actions are planned.

Wynne, who has been a recurring character in the GoCompare ads for more than ten years, expressed his sadness, saying he was ‘deeply disappointed’ due to the controversy following some Strictly Come Dancing viewers requesting his removal from the series.

On BBC Radio Wales, during his daily program, Mr. Evans expressed deep sadness about the recent articles written about him, saying, “I am utterly devastated.

He said: ‘I’m absolutely heartbroken by the things that have been written about me in the last day.

The duo had become surprise favourites to win this year’s Strictly, scoring 34 out of 40 from the judges for their tango on Saturday.

In those times, it wasn’t the most pleasant experience, but let me clarify, Katya and I share an exceptionally strong bond, more than just acquaintances, and on a particular Saturday evening, we exchanged a rather foolish jest.

Initially, we thought the jest was amusing, but in retrospect, it wasn’t. Unfortunately, it appears to have been misunderstood entirely.

It seems like everything concerning this matter is openly discussed by Katya on her social media platforms. She has clarified that her initial statement was merely a joke, and she herself didn’t take offense to it at all. Moreover, she appears to be completely comfortable with the situation.

Our bond is extraordinary, strong beyond measure, and I apologize if anyone felt uncomfortable by it, but it was meant humorously. To clarify, there isn’t any underlying tale; it’s just a jest, truly.

‘And I feel weird apologising because I feel like I’ve not really done anything.’

During an interview on Radio Wales Breakfast prior to hosting his own program, he acknowledged that he had made an error in judgment about something, and he reiterated his eagerness to participate in Strictly Come Dancing.

As a devoted follower, I find myself immersed in an extraordinary period, one that ranks as the pinnacle of my experiences thus far. Yet, I can’t help but hope that this exceptional time won’t be what people recall about me.
