Now, the pair will come face-to-face once again on Strictly’s spin-off show, It Takes Two, this evening at 6:30pm. It comes after Katya, 35, was seen refusing to high-five the GoCompare face – sparking rumours of a fallout. After Strictly’s Week Four wrapped, the duo – who had performed a Tango earlier in the night – were quick to issue a video apology and insisted it was all an innocent “inside joke”. Today, Wynne told his listeners: “I’m absolutely heartbroken by the things that have been written about me in the last day. “It’s not nice to live in that time, but basically Katya and I are really, really close and we’re really good friends, and on Saturday night we made a stupid joke. “It was a stupid joke that went wrong, OK? “We thought it was funny. It wasn’t funny. “It was been totally misinterpreted.” The broadcaster then gushed over his “brilliant friendship” with the Russian and added: “Everything’s on Katya’s socials. She’s talked about it.” Despite fans demanding the pair clarify exactly what “the joke” was, Wynne didn’t explain any further. He said: “She’s explained that it was a joke. She wasn’t offended in the least. She doesn’t feel uncomfortable. “We’ve got a brilliant friendship, an absolutely tight friendship, and I’m sorry if anybody was offended by it, but it was a joke. “And that’s all there is. There is no real story, really.” PURE BANTS Wynne was referring to the video Katya had uploaded to her social media pages this weekend. The clip – posted shortly after the online chaos ensued – saw Katya tell fans: “Hi everyone, it’s Wynne and Katya here, we just wanted to say we were messing around in the clauditorium on Saturday night and we just want to say sorry.” She added: “It was a silly joke.” While Wynne echoed: “Yeah, sorry.” Katya then hit back a second time in a another video upload. On Sunday afternoon, Katya returned to Instagram with another message for her fans. She said: “Happy Sunday everyone. Now, I need to make something crystal clear. “The hand incident that happened on Sunday night was indeed a very silly inside joke. “So even the idea that he made me feel uncomfortable or offended me in anyway is complete nonsense. “It’s quite absurd actually. “Now can we just focus on how brilliant he is doing and what an amazing dancer that he’s becoming.” Strictly 2024 pairings Here's who is matched with who this series...

BAD TASTE?

The pair’s banter came after the BBC series was engulfed in a string of scandals – though there is no suggestion Katya and Wynne’s joke was inappropriate.

The findings of a probe into former Strictly professional Giovanni Pernice’s behaviour were published earlier this month.

The report upheld six out of 17 allegations against pro dancer Gio.

The BBC has now apologised to his former show partner, actress Amanda Abbington, over the programme’s bullying scandal.

It was claimed the corporation spent an eye-watering six-figure sum on the investigation.

Meanwhile, the same investigation also saw Giovanni’s fellow Italian pro Graziano Di Prima axed after allegations of “physical incidents” towards show partner Zara McDermott, 27.
