Wynne Evans, the Welsh singer weaving his opera talents into Strictly after controversy

Wynne Evans, along with his professional partner Katya Jones, is one of the remaining contestants on this year's Strictly Come Dancing.

Speaking to the BBC, Evans said: “I am honestly still pinching myself, a portly balding opera singer, me, taking part in Strictly Come Dancing?! I’m not entirely sure how I’ll get along, if all else fails I’ll just have to learn the art of distraction. What I do know is I will give it my all and aim to make Wales proud. I’m definitely going to try and combine my love of Opera into one of my routines.”
