Seann Walsh has reportedly been continuously ignored by his fellow Strictly Come Dancing contestants following his cheating scandal with Katya Jones.
The pair sparked huge controversy earlier this month when they were spotted kissing while both in relationships.
While the comedian’s girlfriend, Rebecca Humphries, immediately split with the star, Katya’s husband, Neil, has stuck by his wife throughout the scandal.
A source told The Sun that Seann has been blatantly ignored by his fellow contestants since the controversy emerged.
“Seann was overheard voicing his concerns that he gets ignored on the group. He’ll put out a message and only receive a muted reaction,” the source explained, speaking of the celebrities’ WhatsApp group.
“Then another member of the group will message something completely different and receive several responses to it. It’s everyone’s not-so-subtle way of making sure he’s aware how everyone feel, especially when Neil and Katya are also present on the group.”
“Everyone wishes that he could be taken off of it, as it would make things considerably less awkward, but instead he’s just been phased out with the hope he’ll leave of his own accord,” the source revealed.
The news comes after former cricketer Graeme Swann, who is also competing on Strictly, admitted that there are “one or two” people who nobody likes on the show.
The 39-year-old opened up about the backstage antics on BBC Sounds and said: “It is showbiz remember – everyone is ‘lovey dovey darling’ to your face, but behind closed doors you are pulling out knives from your back every five minutes.”
