Seann Walsh has apologised after he was photographed kissing his married Strictly Come Dancing partner Katya Jones..on his girlfriend's birthday. His partner Rebecca Humphries has been nothing but supportive to the comedian and his dance partner. She was even spotted in floods of tears (tears of joy) as they took to the dance floor on Saturday night. Now it's reported that while Seann and Katya were locked in a moment of passion, his girlfriend was elsewhere celebrating her birthday.
Today, there's calls for the pair to be sacked, but it's reported if they do dance again this weekend, they will be voted off by the public.
Meanwhile Seann has said it was a "one-off mistake".
In light of the story in today's newspaper I would like to offer my sincere apologies for my actions. This is no excuse but it was a one-off drunken mistake which I am truly sorry for.

Photographs in The Sun showed the pair locking lips and dancing in the street last week
Seann's girlfriend has been cheering him on every Saturday night and at one point even tweeted that Katya was a 'fierce kick ass QUEEN'

Katya who is married to fellow Strictly dancer Neil Jones has also apologised on Twitter.
I’m so sorry about any offence or hurt I may have caused with my actions. I wasn’t thinking and it was a one-off mistake after some drinks. I love my husband and we are very happy together, this is not a reflection on our relationship.

Sean and Katya were tipped to be voted off the show this weekend, but managed to survive the vote.
