Strictly Come Dancing star Katya Jones has hit back at claims she’s feuding with celebrity contestant Catherine Tydesley, after fans spotted her particularly venomous glare in her direction.

Viewers began suspecting a feud after Katya was spotted looking less than pleased when former Corrie actress Catherine and her professional dance partner Johannes Radbe outscored her with a score of 28.

'I’m not sure if Katya was dishing Catherine Tyldesley a dirty look then or it’s just her resting b---h face!' wrote one commenter, while another said, 'oh ya @mrskatjones your on telly hen'. sic

But a defiant Katya took to her own Instagram to poke fun at the accusations, writing simply, 'you make me laugh, people!'.

Katya has faced a barrage of criticism on this year’s show alongside unconventional dancer Mike Bushell, who’s made a career out of his on-air blunders.

Last week she was accused of being 'drunk' on stage after falling over mid-routine and then again up the stairs – which she later claimed she’d done on purpose.

And her recent split from co-star Neil Jones has been under the spotlight after he took to the stage for the first time this series with celebrity partner, footballer Alex Scott.

Neil and Katya announced their separation after six years of marriage earlier this year, following last year’s snog-gate scandal when Katya was papped kissing her then dance partner Seann Walsh in the street.
