Gino D'Acampo
Holly Willoughby and Dermot O'Leary looked rather uncomfortable as Gino made a nod to the ongoing headlines.
Phillip's exit came following reports of a rift with co-presenter Holly Willoughby, which he previously refuted.
The Italian chef said he would rather step back from the ITV show than affect his friendship with his co-stars.
"No. Don’t say that," Phillip Schofield told him.
As Strictly heads into its landmark 20th series, these are the celebs rumoured to be getting their dancing shoes on.
Gino claimed there was "nothing wrong" with his inappropriate comment, despite his co-stars' shocked expressions.
"You get me here at 10 o’clock in the morning and I’m on at 12?"
Definitely NOT family friendly.
The This Morning chef shared a photo of him kissing and cuddling seven year-old Mia.
One viewer compared the TV chef to an "off-brand Johnny Depp".
