CRAIG REVEL HORWOOD LEFT FUMING AFTER SHOCK STRICTLY CLASH CQđŸ˜±

STRICTLY Come Dancing’s Craig Revel Horwood has opened up on a clash he had with fellow judge Anton Du Beke.

Craig was left “fuming” early into their time as Strictly colleagues, but Anton learned never to make the same mistake twice.

The dancing pros opened up on their brief falling out while chatting on their new podcast, Judgemental.

Anton stared: “I’m gonna tell you about the thing that drives you mad, gives you the ump. Drives you crazy. I know, I know exactly what it is – being late.”

Craig replied: “Well, now this is where our biggest argument will be. And this is where our first argument actually was, because friendship for me went out the window. If I am sat in a car waiting for you, I will leave. I will wait five minutes and I will leave, darling.”

He then spoke about being forced to wait for Anton one time while he signed autographs and it drove him up the wall.

“When I was in that car, I was fuming because you’re there signing autographs, going ‘Oh yes, darling,’ doing all of that. And I thought, if you want to sign autographs, come down half an hour early. And I gave you a right b******ing. You’ve never done it since,” Craig stated.

Anton joked: “So, from that point on, I always get in the car before him now.”

The pair’s new podcast comes as audiences can expect huge changes during the upcoming series of Strictly.

EastEnders star Lacey Turner and former Love Islander Dani Dyer were the first to be confirmed in the line-up.

Then on Friday, Aussie singer Delta Goodrem was also added to the line-up.

A new trio of hosts — Emma Willis, Josh Widdicombe and Johannes Radebe — will entertain viewers and guide them through the series.

They are replacing Tess Daly and Claudia Winkelman who announced midway through the 2025 series of Strictly that it would be their last, with their final show airing on Christmas Day.
