    Cliff Notes – Wynne Evans announces engagement months after ‘dumping’ claims

    • Wynne Evans, 53, has announced his engagement to Liz Brookes, revealing he proposed during a trip to Morocco, feeling “smug” about the news.
    • This announcement follows a tumultuous period for Evans, including being dropped from the Strictly Come Dancing Live Tour due to inappropriate comments and the non-renewal of his BBC Radio contract.

    Strictly star Wynne Evans announces engagement months after ‘dumping’ claims

    Wynne Evans has admitted he is feeling ‘smug’ after announcing he is engaged.

    Earlier this year the Welsh opera singer, 53, was sensationally dumped from the Strictly Come Dancing Live Tour over comments he made involving host Janette Manrara.

    The ‘unacceptable’ joke referenced having a threesome with the dancer, 41.

    Soon after he apologised, saying he was ‘deeply sorry for the pain my inappropriate action caused’ and would take a break from the public eye for ‘self-reflection’ and to ‘prioritise my wellbeing’.

    At the time it was reported that he’s been dumped by his girlfriend Liz Brookes, 50, but it was then quickly clarified she was helping to ‘rally around him’.

    A few months on, he’s now revealed they are set to tie the knot.

    Posting a photo on Instagram of him getting down on one knee while in holiday in Morocco, Wynne shared: ‘Big news… I got engaged! 💍

    ‘This weekend in Morocco, somewhere between the couscous, the camels, and me limping around the souks like a man with no spatial awareness, I proposed to Liz — and she said yes! (No take-backs, I’ve checked.)

    ‘She’s clever, she’s kind, she’s got excellent taste in men. Absolutely no idea how I pulled that off, but here we are! Feeling very lucky, very happy, and just a tiny bit smug.’

    In the post, Wynne also shared a photo of their hands holding glasses of champagne, with Liz’s engagement ring front and centre.

    Liz, who runs her own successful events company in Cardiff, met Wynne at one of her events.

    Following the news a source told The Sun: ‘It has been a tumultuous six months for Wynne, but Liz has been his absolute rock throughout.

    ‘Finally, some wonderful news for Wynne and his inner circle to celibate and everyone is chuffed for them both.

    ‘He secretly bought an engagement ring and squirrelled it away for their holiday and then popped the question over champagne.’

    They added: ‘Liz has been incredible over the past few months, supporting him through thick and thin, and had his back throughout, but obviously Wynne is telling everyone she’s a lucky girl!’

    Wynne and Liz are believed to have started dating last year after his divorce from his wife of 17 years Tanwen Evans.

    The former couple share two children, daughter Ismay and son Taliesin.

    Wynne’s engagement comes a few months after he was axed by the BBC, who didn’t renew his one-year rolling BBC Radio contract following a four-month investigation.

    He confirmed in an Instagram statement: ‘It breaks my heart to say the BBC has decided not to renew my contract, so I won’t be returning to my radio show. I’m gutted. That show wasn’t just work — it was home. It was us. We laughed, we cried, we sang like nobody was listening. And somehow, through the airwaves, we became a family.’

    A spokesperson for the BBC told Metro: ‘Wynne Evans is not under contract with the BBC. He is not returning to the mid-morning show on BBC Radio Wales and there are currently no plans to work with him.’
