Why I fear there is a troubling code of silence among Strictly stars over Wynne's vile 'spit-roast' slur
Why I fear there is a troubling code of silence among Strictly stars over Wynne's vile 'spit-roast' slur

Wynne Evans was dramatically axed from the Strictly live tour last night after being caught making a sick sexual comment about one of the show's female hosts. Evans, 53, was due to perform on Tuesday at Liverpool's M&S Bank Arena, but issued a statement hours before he was expected on stage.

The opera singer, who found fame in the Go Compare TV ads, had already been replaced in his BBC Wales radio show. He said: 'I've agreed with the BBC that l'll take some time out from my radio show and the Strictly Live tour, as well as my other public commitments, to prioritise my wellbeing.'.

'I am deeply sorry for the pain my inappropriate actions have caused, and plan to take this time for self-reflection. 'Apologies to those I won't get to see at the remaining performances, and I'm grateful to my fellow tour gang for all the amazing support they have given me.'.

Disgraced Evans had been allowed to continue on the Strictly live tour, despite calls for him to step down, after I revealed in The Mail on Sunday that I had heard the Strictly star use the vile term 'spit-roast' at the launch of this year's circuit. He used the sordid term, which refers to three-way sex, about his BBC colleague Janette Manrara. It's about as crude and offensive a suggestion as you can make.
