Over the weekend, news broke of Strictly Come Dancing contestant Seann Walsh and his professional dancing partner Katya Jones kissing outside a London pub. Now, Seann's long-term girlfriend, Rebecca Humphries, has made her feelings clear on Twitter as she chose to like and respond to some supportive tweets.

The actress responded to a tweet from best-selling author and Strictly superfan Marian Keyes. In the tweet, Marian referenced a fan game were people give 'AGINs' to celebrities or pros for doing things they don't like. In her tweet, Marian said she was putting, 'ALL THREE of my AGINs on Seannnnnnn Walsh'.

Rebecca then simply replied to Marian saying, 'Wanna be friends?'

This started a conversation between Rebecca and Marian, with the author explaining how she felt for Seann's girlfriend, 'Of COURSE. I'm so upset for you, I've been thinking about you all day xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx', she tweeted.

Following her activity on Twitter, Rebecca has now appeared to unfollow Seann on Instagram. However, a photo she posted last month, showing Seann wearing a 'Keep Calm and Listen to Katya' T-shirt still remains on her Instagram feed, showing the support she had for her boyfriend and his professional dance partner.

This all comes after photos emerged over the weekend of Seann Walsh and Katya Jones kissing in public. Both Seann, and Katya, who is married to Strictly choreographer Neil Jones, have now issued separate statements, apologising for their actions saying it was 'one-off drunken mistake'.

Katya took to social media first saying, 'I’m so sorry about any offence or hurt I may have caused with my actions. I wasn’t thinking and it was a one-off mistake after some drinks. I love my husband and we are very happy together, this is not a reflection on our relationship.'

Whilst Seann posted his apology soon after saying, 'I would like to offer my sincere apologies for my actions. This is no excuse but it was a one-off drunken mistake which I am truly sorry for.'

A spokesperson for the BBC has reportedly said the couple will continue to take part in the series and it's "very much business as usual".
