Former Strictly Come Dancing winner Kelvin Fletcher has been slammed for his “dangerous” and “selfish” actions.
The 36-year-old shared a series of videos that showcased him pulling a number of pranks on his wife Liz Marsland.
She subsequently becomes a victim of his ongoing torment that includes a stick like item with a novelty boxing glove on the end that is continuously thrusted towards her face in a bid to catch her off guard.
Ordinarily, some people may have found the soap stars tricks funny, however on this occasion, there was one short snippet that didn’t seem to sit well with critics.
The actor was blasted for prodding his wife as she drove the family car which caused her to become distracted by the object.
In the clip, that has now been deleted from social media, the couples daughter Marnie is also seen.
Before long, the snippet had reached the road safety charity Brake, who slammed the star for his careless and “dangerous” actions.
The charity didn’t hold back their dismay after witnessing the clip and told The Sun: “Even a moment’s distraction from the road ahead can result in catastrophe.
“Passengers must do all they can to allow a driver’s concentration to remain on the road and certainly never purposefully cause a distraction.
“Such behaviour, as shown in this video, is selfish and dangerous.”
Kelvin, shot to fame back in 1996 after he landed himself the role of the lovable Andy Sugden on the ITV soap opera Emmerdale.
After a decade devoted to the iconic programme, Kelvin took his chances and left the show, in hope of pursuing other opportunities.
Last year, he struck gold, after Made In Chelsea star Jamie Laing had to drop out of the competition due to a foot injury, meaning that Kelvin had a chance to take to the dance floor alongside Oti Mabuse.
The pair continued to wow the judges each week with their believable performances that led to growing speculation of romance between the pair, although they both strongly denied all allegations.
At the time, Kelvin found his marriage to Liz in jeopardy after picture of the the dancing duo emerged showing them drinking in the early hours together.
