Seann Walsh on moment he found out news of his affair was leaked: ‘I’m now lying here screaming’

Seann Walsh and Katya Jones' affair is a textbook example of the so-called Strictly Come Dancing "curse". He later addressed it in a special.

Comedian Seann Walsh competed in series 16 of Strictly Come Dancing, alongside his professional partner Katya Jones, in 2018. They danced the Charleston in front of 5 million people, less than a day after Seann found himself having a “screaming” panic attack in Notting Hill. In his YouTube comedy special, Seann describes watching himself become a punchline on Have I Got News For You, and being paranoid, upon leaving his Notting Hill hotel, that someone would recognise him and inform the press of his “secret” whereabouts.
