Go Compare opera singer Wynne Evans revealed that he weighed more than 23 stone in 2022, which was exacerbated by a series of devastating events in his life
Strictly contestant Wynne Evans said he already feels like the 'competition winner', after the BBC show helped in his journey of losing an impressive seven stone. The 52-year-old contestant, whose currently partnered with dancing professional Katya Jones, weighed more than 23 stone in 2022, which was exacerbated by a series of devastating events in his life.
A diet overhaul and strict exercise were among the changes he made, but Wynne stressed that joining Strictly this year was the icing on the cake. In a previous conversation with the Metro, the Welsh star explained that although he'd been running around all day on set, he'd been enjoying every minute of it.
Last year, Wynne also opened up about his ongoing journey with the Mirror, explaining that he'd battled with his weight during his childhood years too. At one stage, he said he would 'have to be careful what chair would sit on, just in case broke the chair', describing it as 'embarrassing'.
