Katya Jones has dismissed the claims that there’s tension between her and her fellow Strictly Come Dancing dancers.The allegations first surfaced in the wake of Russia – Katya’s home country – invading Ukraine, which the dancer isn't thought to have addressed until today, Thursday 31 March.
With this in mind, some people have questioned if Russian dancers like Katya, 32, and Luba Mushtuk, also 32, should be allowed to take part in the popular BBC show, while others have claimed it caused “tension” between Katya and the rest of the dancers; particularly between Katya, Luba and Ukrainian-born dancers Nikita Kuzmin, 24, and Nadiya Bychkova, 32.
Katya has now rubbished the claims, however, and insisted that they’re all “nonsense”. Host Sara Davies asked the 32 year old on today’s edition of Morning Live: “Now Katya I know from being part of the show with you all just what a close-knit group you are. “But we’ve been seeing reports in the news about rifts in the camp over the Ukrainian crisis.That must be upsetting for you?” Katya replied: “Yeah Sara, this is total nonsense, you’ve seen first-hand how supportive we are of each other always. “I do want to make one thing very clear, the invasion of Ukraine is totally wrong, it shouldn’t be happening.” Get exclusive celebrity stories and fabulous photoshoots straight to your inbox with OK!'s daily newsletter.
