Wynne Evans says he is "disappointed" about what he says were "lies" told about him in media coverage during his appearance in this year's Strictly Come Dancing.

The opera singer was caught up in controversy with dance partner Katya Jones earlier in the series.

Viewers noticed some apparently awkward moments between the pair, when she seemed to decline a high-five and later appeared to move his hand from her waist.

After Evans and Jones' "running joke" was poorly received the pair apologised.

"I'm still astounded that people are allowed to write any, for want of a better word, lies that they want," he said.
