Strictly’s Katya Jones pays tribute to ‘ray of sunshine’ Wynne Evans after a ‘difficult week’ as she shares sweet Instagram snaps
As a seasoned journalist with years of experience under my belt, I’ve seen it all – the highs and lows, the scandals and the gaffes. But this Strictly Come Dancing saga seems to be taking the cake! I mean, who wouldn’t cringe at the thought of a dad joke in a professional setting?
Katya Jones, from Strictly, honored “beacon of sunlight” Wynne Evans by posting heartwarming Instagram photos after the Halloween festivities had passed.
The 35-year-old dance professional acknowledged that it hadn’t been the most straightforward week for herself and Wynne, yet managed to find optimistic aspects arising from the situation.
The Welsh opera singer star, 52, who has recently been caught up in a ‘wandering hand’ incident, transformed into a red devil alongside partner Katya.
After the outcomes displayed on Sunday, Katya shared a compilation of pictures taken during their practice sessions throughout the week.
She titled her post: “It was Halloween, and that results show gave me goosebumps! Thank you so very much once again! We’ve advanced to Week 7! (I still can’t believe it!!!)
I’m deeply appreciative of your backing, and beyond that, it really energizes me to strive for creating something exceptional for all of you each week.
A big shout-out to @jennytaps1 and @sean.moon! Jenny’s the one I always turn to for Salsa and Charleston moves – she’s simply indispensable in my dance routine!
‘9 years we’ve been coming up with routines for you and this one was another success!
It’s also evident that Wynne is a beacon of sunshine, as he never imposes restrictions on himself during training. Instead, he aims to infuse enthusiasm and delight each Saturday. I truly cherish our dancing moments together.
Regarding our recent discussions, @wynneevans, you’re simply extraordinary! Thank you for another week filled with joy (even though it wasn’t always simple). You helped maintain our positive spirits, kept us laughing, and look at that, here we are – ICONS WEEK!
After the joke Wynne allegedly told backstage was revealed, he faced more trouble due to its crude nature.
It’s said that he jokingly commented, while getting his makeup done backstage, that his double chin looked like female private parts.
As a devoted follower, I understand from insider reports that before the grand unveiling of the BBC competition, I myself made an off-color joke in a confidential chat with a makeup artist, a moment that has since been shared within circles.
A source told The Mirror: ‘It was a bit of a vulgar dad joke.’
According to the article, there was another individual present in the room during the incident, and it’s important to note that the makeup artist did not take offense to Wynne’s joke.
It is said that while formal complaints were made, staff members were not amused.
The insider went on to add: ‘Wynne clearly didn’t mean any offence, but you have to be a little bit careful these days.’
A close friend of Wynne’s allegedly asserted that Wynne’s playful remark was a subtle form of self-mockery, sharing this observation privately with the makeup artist in front of others.
TopMob have contacted representatives of Strictly and Wynne for comment.
Weeks earlier, the humorously dubious remark was made, and it was this event that preceded the Welsh performer, known for both singing and acting, being involved in an incident involving stray hands with his dance partner, Katya Jones, professionally speaking.
spectators noticed an awkward instance where Katya pulled Wynne’s hand off her waist and declined his attempt for a high-five from her.
The dance partners had spent the week defending their awkward exchange during a live show two weeks ago.
However, it was since reported that the BBC gave the pair an extra chaperone as a result.
According to The Sun, they were under closer observation due to a recent event, and both the team and personnel were advised to remain alert during filming for the upcoming episode.
According to the source, instead of having just one guardian, each of them was accompanied by their own, and overall, the entire group remained particularly vigilant.
The action was viewed as a method to avoid any more inappropriate jokes, while at the same time ensuring Katya’s safety, if Wynne’s waist-grab wasn’t just a joke, as they claim, but rather an unwanted advance.
In either case, supervisors decided it was wise to have additional people monitor them to avoid any further instances of wrongdoing.
The BBC were contacted by TopMob for comment at the time.
Due to the incident, there was significant worry within the upper management at the BBC, who had already been dealing with allegations of misconduct from past series for several months. As a result, they launched an investigation focused on employee wellbeing.
Katya had confirmed that she had not felt uncomfortable and no further action was taken.
