Piers Morgan has slammed former Strictly Come Dancing contestant Seann Walsh for giving an interview about his time on the show.

The stand-up comedian, who appeared on the 2018 edition of the contest, was caught kissing married pro Katya Jones on a drunken night out halfway through filming of the series.

Walsh continued to perform on the show after the scandal broke, despite Katya's husband Neil also being a pro dancer on the series.

In an interview with The Times, Walsh has recalled the events that 'cost his career' in a piece entitled "My Strictly Come Dancing hell".

Posting a picture of the interview on Twitter, Morgan remarked: "Imagine being so tone-deaf that you think THIS is the moment to go public with your 'Strictly Come Dancing hell'?

"Jeez, some celebrities right now need to just post a supportive message to the NHS, tell everyone to stay inside & shut the f*** up."

In recent days Morgan has also launched attacks on Kirstie Allsopp and old friend Lord Sugar for their responses to the coronavirus crisis.
