Strictly Come Dancing star Wynne Evans appeared on Monday’s The One Show

Strictly Come Dancing star Wynne Evans didn’t shy away from teasing Craig Revel Horwood during his appearance on Monday’s The One Show.

While Wynne, 52, was there to chat about his new series with Joanna Page, Wynne and Joanna: All At Sea, the conversation quickly turned to Strictly as he reminisced about competing in the 2024 series.

Wynne is also currently entertaining audiences on the BBC One dancing show’s live tour, Strictly Come Dancing Live!, which brings the glitz and glamour directly to fans across the UK.

Sharing some backstage banter from the tour, Wynne cheekily remarked: “It’s fun, you know, it’s just real fun, it’s absolute entertainment. Craig [who is a judge] is as rude as ever. He called me right, yesterday, he said that I was stompy and flat footed. Right?”

He continued with a laugh: “So I said: ‘Have you heard your album, mate, that’s stompy and flat if ever I’ve heard it!’ So yeah, there’s quite a lot of banter and he gave me a two yesterday, so I was absolutely gutted, just because I was a bit rude about his album!”, reports Wales Online.

Craig’s representatives have been approached for comment.

It comes as Craig was flooded with praise from his fellow Strictly Come Dancing judges after celebrating a milestone recently. The longest-serving judge on Strictly Come Dancing was labelled “warm and witty” by his colleagues as they shared tributes to him on his 60th birthday.

In November, Wynne was the eighth celebrity to depart the dancefloor during Strictly Come Dancing 2024. The opera singer, who was partnered with pro dancer Katya Jones, found themselves in the dance-off against Montell Douglas and Johannes Radebe.

The judging panel, comprising of Craig, Motsi Mabuse, Anton Du Beke, and Shirley Ballas, unanimously chose to save Montell and Johannes, leading to Wynne and Katya’s exit from the competition.

When asked by Tess Daly about his time on the show, Wynne said: “It’s been wonderful, I’ve got to say. I feel like it’s what Strictly is all about. If I can come and do Strictly and last until week nine, then anybody can get out there and dance and have a brilliant time.

“Strictly is such a brilliant family, such a precious family, that I want everybody here in this room and at home to look after it for the generations to come because it is a wonderful, wonderful thing.”

Wynne added: “To have been partnered with Katya has been amazing and coming every Saturday night to hang out with these guys [to fellow contestants in the Clauditorium], that’s been wonderful. But to spend every weekday dancing has been just fantastic. I’ve grown so much and I’m so thankful to have met this person [to Katya].”
