The Go Compare opera singer, 52, and his professional partner Katya, 35, appeared dejected just 24 hours earlier.

Women’s Aid criticized them for saying it was a joke when Wynne grabbed Katya by the waist during Saturday night’s show.

The domestic violence charity said: “Inappropriate behavior towards women is no joke.”

Women’s Aid added: “With an epidemic of misogyny and violence against women and girls in Britain, we need a media culture where women feel safe to speak out, where sexually inappropriate behavior is not trivialized or joked about. are made.

“It is important that we challenge inappropriate ‘jokes’ so that we do not continue to normalize toxic attitudes that cultivate these forms of gender-based abuse.”

The pair are training in Cardiff, where Wynne presents BBC Radio Wales’ lunchtime show.

Katya removed Wynne’s hand from her stomach after he slid it over her waist and refused to give him a high five during Saturday’s show.

The pair have been slammed by BBC bosses over the incident, which was broadcast live and has become a viral sensation.

On Tuesday the pair looked dejected as they arrived at their training session in Cardiff as angry viewers called for their axe.

Both stars insisted there was nothing sinister behind Katya’s icy response.

GoCompare crooner Wynne wrote: “We were just messing around. We are really great friends.”
