Former Strictly Come Dancing winner Jay McGuiness has revealed that there were behind the scenes scandals from his series that were never discovered.
The Wanted singer, who won the series in 2015 with partner Aliona Vilani, said that while many scandals made the papers, there were quite a few that still remained under wraps.

Talking on Loose Women he said: “My year was just like every other year, there were two big romantic scandals and half of it is in the paper and half isn’t.
“And then there’s a bunch of stuff that goes on and you think, ‘Wow I am really surprised no one knows about this’.”
The 28-year-old refused to reveal the identities of those engaged in scandalous behaviour.
However, Jay did cheekily add: “So much goes on, it’s just a bunch of made people in close proximity who don’t normally hang out like athletes and pop stars and newsreaders.”

“Then I don’t know, after the second show and people get on the champagne!”
