Strictly stars Wynne and Katya speak out
Fleur introduced the pair and asked them about their Saturday night tango. However, Katya interrupted Fleur and said: “Sory Fleur, I will get to that, but can I please get something out of the way that’s overshadowed our performance for absolutely no reason.”
The Strictly pro dancer then continued: “Quite frankly, I can’t bear sitting here watching this man being portrayed as someone’s he’s not and, in fact, it could not be further away from the truth.
“So I have to make this absolutely clear. This whole incident with the high five and the hand on Saturday night was an inside joke between Wynne and I. Was it a silly joke? Yes. Was it a bad joke? Yes,” she said.

Wynne responds
“And I’ve watched it back and I can see how people may have misinterpreted it,” he said.

Katya then cut in again. “However, it was a joke. And even the idea that it’s made me feel uncomfortable or offended in any way is total nonsense.”
Issuing a defiant message, she then said: “Those that have doubts, you guys have got it wrong. So hopefully this will be the end of it.”

Speaking to Wynne, Katya then said: “And just keep making me smile, please. Because my Sunday was pretty boring without you making me belly laugh all day long. And look at you shining on that dancefloor on Saturday night. Wasn’t he incredible.”
