Wynne Evans hires lawyers amid Strictly Live Tour dismissal

Wynne Evans, the opera singer and star of the Go Compare ads, has hired the London-based law firm Russells following his removal from the Strictly Live tour due to inappropriate remarks made about host Janette Manrara. After using a vulgar term during a tour photocall, he agreed with the BBC to take time off from his commitments to focus on his wellbeing. Reports indicate he is exploring legal action for breach of contract and loss of earnings, as his career faces jeopardy, including his longstanding role with Go Compare. Despite the backlash, friends claim his career isn't over and characterize his comment as 'schoolboy comedy.' His girlfriend, Liz Brookes, has been a source of support during this challenging time. Meanwhile, the BBC continues to face scrutiny over its decision to air Evans's new show, 'Wynne & Joanna: All at Sea.'
