Wynne Evans Escapes to Dubai Amidst Strictly Turmoil and Controversies
Wynne Evans has headed to Dubai with girlfriend Liz Brookes following backlash from Strictly Come Dancing controversies, including a crude joke and a sex toy prank. Despite the sun-soaked getaway, he’s reportedly considering legal action and facing potential job loss with GoCompare. Support from dance partner Katya Jones offers a sliver of optimism amidst the troubles.
Oh, where to begin? Wynne Evans, the cheeky face of Go Compare, has jetted off to Dubai with his girlfriend, Liz Brookes. This escapade comes on the heels of some not-so-pleasant publicity surrounding his time on Strictly Come Dancing. You know, when your name starts surfacing with words like “scandal” and “sex toys,” it’s probably time for a holiday—pronto!
The 53-year-old performer recently found himself in hot water after making a rather crude joke about pro dancer Janette Manrara during a Strictly launch event in Birmingham. I mean, come on, spit-roasting? Really? Not exactly Oscar-worthy material there. Subsequently, he got shown the door from the BBC Strictly tour.
But, wait—there’s more! The controversy of the hour seems to involve EastEnders star Jamie Borthwick. Let’s just say, a naughty prank gift of a sex toy surfaced in a video and, guess what? The BBC wasn’t amused. Apparently, they had to remind Wynne and Jamie that their shenanigans needed to stay professional.
The whispers are that this escapade took place only a couple of days after Wynne made another tacky comment about Jamie relating to Janette. Talk about stepping on the same rake more than once! After all the dust settled (or didn’t), Wynne made a swift exit to Heathrow Airport on Friday morning looking somewhat like he’d just come out of a soap opera—hopefully not EastEnders.
Sporting a casual getup—navy t-shirt, grey hoodie, and blue jeans—he and Liz were like a matched set of suitcases, all set for a sun-drenched break. But the sunshine might not be enough to dispel the grey clouds of his recent dramas. Even while trying to soften the blow, he looked a bit like a lost puppy.
A source spilled the beans, saying Wynne’s been juggling a lot lately, hinting that maybe this holiday was more of a necessity than a luxury. He’s reportedly keeping mum about the BBC debacle, but something tells me the trip may not be all cocktails and sunbathing.
There are also whispers in the grapevine that Wynne is considering legal action over the fallout—oh boy, just what you want on holiday! And to top it off, there are murmurs that he might have lost his long-term gig with GoCompare, which he’s held since 2009. Ouch!
On the upside (well, there’s always a silver lining), Katya Jones, his dance partner on Strictly, has come to his defence, praising him as “incredible” during a chat with The Sun. She reminisced about their collaboration, stating “Wynne has never made me feel uncomfortable,” so at least someone still has his back. So, while Wynne’s off lying on the beach, controversy is never too far behind!
In short, Wynne Evans has whisked away to Dubai amidst a fresh slate of controversies linked to his time on Strictly Come Dancing. From lewd jokes to a sex toy prank, the drama seems relentless. While he might be soaking up the sun, the implications of recent events—including possible legal action and job loss—cast a long shadow over his getaway. Still, some, like Katya Jones, defend him, providing a glimmer of support amid the chaos. Wynne’s trying to stay sunny, but you’ve got to wonder if he’ll even get a moment of peace to enjoy those beach cocktails!
