Wynne Evans of Strictly Come Dancing shared a cryptic post after declaring he would no longer be presenting on his BBC radio show in a statement shared with fans.
Strictly Come Dancing star Wynne Evans shared a cryptic post about ‘pain’ and ‘suffering’ hours before confirming he was axed from the BBC. On Friday, the Go Compare star and radio and TV personality announced he will not be returning to his radio show, telling fans he was ‘gutted’ by the news.
When he appeared on Strictly, Wynne hit headlines several times. He was shown grabbing his professional partner Katya’s waist before she pushed his hand away, but he later insisted it was a joke and was supported by Katya. He then came under fire for using the term ‘spit roast’ to Janette Manrara during a Strictly tour photocall, but he later insisted it was directed at Jamie Borthwick and had nothing to do with Janette.

The star was kicked out of the Strictly Live tour as a result of the comment. However, a video of him giving his co-star Jamie a sex toy quickly emerged, which both received harsh criticism for. Wynne claimed in a recent statement that his BBC contract had expired and that he would no longer be working for the BBC for his radio show.
However, hours before the announcement, he shared a spiritual quote on his Instagram Stories featuring isolating clips of trains on empty platforms, parks and outer space.
The AI voice narrated the video, saying, “First you suffer, then you awaken, and then you begin to ascend.” Isn’t that strange, then? That discomfort is a summons rather than a punishment.
“A knock on the inner door that says wake up, not to the world but to yourself. You see, suffering shakes the foundation of who you think you are so that you may discover who you truly are and when that veil lifts, something extraordinary happens.
You begin identifying with the witness instead of the wound. This signifies awakening. Ascension is not about falling into the sky; it is about fully immersing yourself in the present, unburdened by the past.
Undone by the ego’s desire for control, undisturbed by illusion. You realize that pain didn’t make you break, it built the staircase, and you start living as the soul, not the story, and you realize that now you are rising.
In Wynne’s statement a few hours later, he told fans: “My beloved Wynners, From the very depths of my heart — thank you. These past few months, your love has been the light in my darkest days. Every message, every word of encouragement, every moment you stood by me has carried me through more than you could ever know.
“It breaks my heart to say the BBC has decided not to renew my contract so I won’t be returning to my radio show. I’m gutted. That show wasn’t just work — it was home. It was us. We laughed, we cried, we sang like nobody was listening. And somehow, through the airwaves, we became a family.”
He continued: “But here’s what I believe with everything I’ve got: what we built cannot end here. So — deep breath — here goes… We’re getting the band back together. The Wynne Evans Show is coming back, live every day from 9am–12pm on a new app, on Alexa and Google (we don’t have to say ‘smart speaker’ anymore!) and at www.wynneevansshow.co.uk.
Our next adventure is this, I say. And I rely on you more than ever. Because we have each other again, we will have great music, my day-long query, the mystery voice, your soundtrack stories, and so much more.
