Strictly Come Dancing’s Wynne Evans has found himself at the center of controversy after making a crude sexual joke during a photocall for the live tour.

The 52-year-old Go Compare star, who was participating in a murder-mystery game inspired by The Traitors, was seen making a vile comment that shocked his co-stars.

His remark, which referenced a sexually explicit term, was immediately met with disapproval, and BBC bosses wasted no time condemning his behavior.

The Moment Wynne Was ‘Banished’ by Co-Stars

The footage, which was shared on Janette Manrara’s Instagram Stories, shows Wynne being ‘banished’ from the game by his fellow Strictly stars.

After his departure from the roundtable, Wynne dramatically revealed that he was, in fact, a Traitor, adding to the tension.

However, the focus quickly shifted when a separate clip surfaced showing Wynne making an inappropriate comment toward Janette.

This shocking moment occurred just days before the Strictly live tour, which is currently taking place across the UK.

Wynne’s Crude Comment Causes Stir During Media Event

At the official launch of the Strictly Come Dancing tour at Birmingham Arena, Wynne made a suggestive remark to Janette Manrara, referring to a “spit roast.”

The comment, captured on video by a Mail on Sunday reporter, was clearly heard despite Janette being momentarily obscured by other cast members.

His comment was not well received, and fellow actor Jamie Borthwick visibly winced.

Shortly after, Janette’s husband, Aljaz Skorjanec, expressed concern, asking, “Darling, are you OK?” Janette responded with a curt “Yep.”

BBC Responds to Incident, Apologizes for Inappropriate Behavior

In the aftermath, a spokesperson for the BBC expressed their dismay at the comment, confirming that they had not previously been made aware of the remark.

They also made it clear that such behavior was unacceptable and would not be tolerated on the Strictly live tour.

Wynne himself later issued an apology, admitting that his language was “inappropriate and unacceptable” and expressing regret for his actions.

Controversy Is Nothing New for Wynne Evans

This isn’t the first time Wynne has faced criticism over his behavior.

Last year, he found himself under fire for inappropriate actions during the live shows, including accusations of groping his dance partner, Katya Jones.

While the incident was dismissed as a misunderstanding, it only added to the mounting controversies surrounding his behavior.

Evans’ “spit-roast” remark adds yet another chapter to his checkered history with the BBC.

The public’s perception of the BBC is increasingly under scrutiny, and these latest incidents only add to the pressure.

Wynne’s Apology May Not Be Enough to Repair Damage
