BBC Strictly Come Dancing fans rush to slam Tess Daly over 'embarrassing' comment to Chris McCausland

BBC Strictly Come Dancing fans have rushed to blast Tess Daly over an 'embarrassing' comment to Chris McCausland on Saturday night. Chris and Dianne Buswell, his BBC Strictly Come Dancing pro partner, scored 32 for their quickstep to You’re The Top from Anything Goes, with Buswell screaming with delight at the end of the performance.

Following their triumphant dance, Chris and Dianne celebrated - but then Tess could be heard telling Chris "can you see how happy she is with you", leaving fans fuming as Chris is blind due to a condition called retinitis pigmentosa.

"No Tess, Chris can't see how happy he made Dianne...... #strictly," one Twitter, now X, user typed. And rushing to slam the comment, another penned: "Surely Tess didn’t just ask Chris ‘can you see how happy she is with you?’ #Strictly."
