Some think that Motsi Mabuse and Craig Revel Horwood aren't seeing eye to eye.

After JB Gill and Amy Dowden's Waltz they spotted an awkward moment between the pair.

Craig was first up to give his critique, he explained that there was a slight issue with his hand position.

Motsi quickly jumped in and shouted: "Week one! Babes, babe. Week one. Babes, babes.

"It's week one. Save it for later."

Many took to social media to point out the awkward encounter.

One fan said: "The only thing that spoilt it was Motsi talking over Craig when he is trying to give his opinion, shut up and sit down woman it's not the Motsi show, let the other judges speak and wait your turn."

Another wrote: "Motsi … how incredibly rude, shutting Craig up like that. If you want to sort out your issues, start with your judges."

A third chimed in: "I don't like the way Motsi keeps shutting Craig down when he's speaking. Let's hear what he has to say!"

"Ok, Motsi was rude talking over Craig like that. He was right, JB was stiff. With respect to Amy, this is not about her, it’s abut her celeb partner," a fourth added.

Days before his partner was revealed, JB gave fans a clue about his professional partner.

JB dropped a hint about who he will be hitting the dancefloor with when speaking to Fleur East, who will once again co-host spin-off show Strictly: It Takes Two.
