Strictly ’s Neil Jones reportedly fears that the fallout from his wife Katya and Seann Walsh’s kiss is having a negative impact on his career.
The professional dancer is apparently miffed that the public chose to keep cheating Katya and Seann in the competition, and thinks it’s pushed him further into the background of the popular BBC show.
On Saturday night’s episode, Neil – who is yet to be teamed up with a celebrity partner for any series – is said to have felt he was ‘pushed to the side’ of the opening number instead of dancing with his wife.
“He’s keeping a dignified silence, but Neil is getting a bit annoyed now," a show insider told The Sun .

“He feels he’s the one being punished even though he’s the innocent party in all this. He is desperate to be a lead dancer, but sadly it looks like it is doing him no favours as he feels he’s being left out.
“The judges can see how Neil looks very downcast and embarrassed by it all, but frankly it was all his wife’s doing and yet he has been pushed to the back while she goes through to the next around.”

Meanwhile, Neil’s close pal Gary Murray, who hosts Dancing with the Stars, says Neil would back a clause in contracts that prevents dancers having affairs.
He said: “Neil would agree with me that the time has come for the BBC to consider putting a non-fraternisation agreement into the contracts with dancers and celebrities.
“Basically, if in breach, both the professional dancer and the celebrity would have to leave the show.
"I represent the biggest dance studios in the world –Arthur Murray International.
“Because of the potential for relationships, AMI has a non-fraternisation policy between the teachers and students which works very well. The culture of dance encourages flirting and romance – if you fling attractive people together to embrace for hours every day, temptation is inevitable.”
