Strictly’s Neil Jones makes a thinly-veiled dig at Seann Walsh as he sports curly-haired wig on It Takes Two
STRICTLY Come Dancing's Neil Jones has made a thinly-veiled dig at Seann Walsh when he sported a curly-haired wig on It Takes Two.
The pro dancer - who's wife Katya was caught kissing the comedian on a night out back in early October - dressed up for his "Neil de Jaunse" dance tutorial segment on the spin-off show tonight.
In a pre-recorded segment, Neil, 35, could be seen talking to the camera while wearing some temporary floppy locks remarkably similar to the hairstyle of Seann, 33.
The husband of 29-year-old Katya - who was the funny man's dance partner until they were eliminated in late October - also wore a blue turtle neck and large glasses in the Seventies-themed clip.
Putting on a funny accent, he took viewers through how to dance the samba with a character called Tallulah.
The segment is a regular feature on the BBC Two show, and he has previously demonstrated how to salsa too.
It comes as Neil and Katya put on a united front for their awkward meeting with Seann at rehearsals for the final of Strictly.
The couple held hands as they walked to the studios in London.
Seann will be returning to the show this weekend and will perform in a group dance with Katya and his co-stars from this series.
While Neil has maintained his silence over the scandal which happened in October, Seann has been accused of cashing in on the kiss.
After re-branding himself as “the most hated comedian in the UK” Seann also mocked Neil during a stand up gig in a pub and called him “gay”.
He said: “Before the show, the newspapers were complaining they didn’t know who I was.
“You know who I am now, motherf******. I’m the guy who kissed a gay man’s wife.”
He then added: “Please don’t report that. I’m only joking.
“I’m just here trying to make you laugh.”
Show insiders told The Sun yesterday Neil was planning on confronting Seann over the jibe.
They explained: “Neil has been telling pals backstage he will confront him and ask him to explain himself.
“He thought the comments were unnecessary so wants to hear what Seann has to say for himself.”
