Wynne Evans' Strictly co-stars stars are rallying around the Welshman on his birthday, after the BBC confirmed he’s been granted leave from his radio show amid the backlash surrounding an X-rated remark. The opera star's future at the BBC has been under intense scrutiny since he was caught on film by The Mail on Sunday making a vile sexual comment about Jeanette Manrara.

On Monday, Wynne accepted the BBC’s offer to take time off from his BBC Wales show, which he has been hosting from regional studios while he has been taking part on the nationwide tour. A source told MailOnline the break was sparked by the furore surrounding his comment, plus the fact he is still mourning his older brother Huw, who died earlier this month, combined with the physical toll of being on the road.
