Vick Hope felt distracted by Strictly Come Dancing kissing scandal

Vick Hope felt distracted by the Seann Walsh and Katya Jones kissing scandal on ‘Strictly Come Dancing’.
The 29-year-old presenter starred alongside comedian Sean on the BBC dancing competition, but she’s admitted that Sean and Katya’s controversial kiss created an on-set awkwardness.
She told the Sun on Sunday newspaper: "It was Saturday night of movie week. We’d just finished the show and it had all gone well -­ then the news came out while we were in the bar afterwards, so we were all together when we saw it. Katya was there with her husband, so we were all like, ‘Oh, s**t!’
"I was with my mum and dad, so I just thought I best look after them and not get involved in any of that."
The most-recent series of ‘Strictly’ was partially overshadowed by Sean’s kiss with Katya, who is married to fellow dancer Neil Jones.
But Neil recently insisted he has forgiven Katya for kissing her dance partner.
He said: "I think, for me, I can accept people make mistakes. My mum always said: ‘People make mistakes in their lives. Don’t react, try to understand’. So that is how it always is for me."
Neil was also thankful for the support of their families during the scandal.
He explained: "When our family contacted us seeing something has happened and that’s not nice, but they said, ‘We know you, and we still love you, we know you have made a mistake.’"
