I’m a Celebrity…Get Me Out of Here! fans were left up in arms as Seann Walsh “giggled” as he explained his “version” of events following his cheating scandal with his pro dancer Katya Jones.
In 2018, the dynamic duo were paired together for the 16th series of Strictly Come Dancing where they made it through to the fifth week of the show before they were voted out.
Just days after they were booted from the show, the dancing duo were spotted kissing despite both of them being in committed relationships at the time.

But viewers couldn’t help but hit out at the star for “giggling” throughout his candid confession as he recalled the difficult moment to his fellow campmates.
During Thursday’s visit to the Australian jungle, Coronation Street star Sue Cleaver couldn’t help but quiz him on the scandalous affair.
He told the soap star: “Hmm, what version… Basically me and my dance partner, who was married, I was in a relationship, we were photographed kissing when we were on Strictly Come Dancing…that was the front page of every newspaper.”

Sue probed: “Why did that crucify you? Why did that have such an impact?”
The comedian confessed: “To be totally honest with you, my poor ex – my girlfriend at the time – posted a statement and that was the end of it.
When asked if they made up and remained friends, Seann clarified: “Oh god no. I said sorry. I sat on Jonathan Ross’s TV show and apologised. I sat next to Will. I. Am and Samuel L. Jackson and apologised.
“That will forever be the weirdest moment of my life and I have to say the worst moment of my life.”

Turning to Bush Telegraph, Seann went on to expand on his affair as he told viewers at home how he wants to “move forward” with his life.
He added: “That’s something in my life that I don’t want to go back to. Obviously, I knew it would come up. They come up so naturally in here.
“I just want to move on. It’s really nice to have people that will listen and are so lovely and wonderful.
“I just want to be clear in that I’m very sorry about what happened and I really want this to be a positive experience and it really has been. I want to come out of here and move forward.”
