Among the celebrities competing for the glitterball was Welsh star Wynne, who was partnered with Katya Jones. After impressing both the judges and viewers at home in the competition Wynne was labelled as a "dark horse" for the series. But an awkward in joke saw the pair fight off controvery and both Katya and Wynne have apologised for the incidents calling them a "misjudged" inside joke.
Wynne was voted off the competition in the middle of November after his Blackpool dance. Welsh professional dancer Amy Dowden also made a fantastic return to the dancefloor after she missed the 2023 series after being diagnosed with and undergoing treatment for breast cancer.
She was partnered with boyband member JB Gill. However, Amy will be missing from the dance floor for the rest of series, after she had a foot injury which meant she has had to withdraw from Strictly. Instead JB is dancing with professional dancer Lauren Oakley.
