ITV This Morning fans cringe as Katya and Neil Jones brush off Seann Walsh kiss-gate

This Morning fans were left cringing today as Katya and Neil Jones appeared on the show to talk about their new musical, skirting over the Seann Walsh kiss drama.

Katya and Neil have created a new show based on their professional and personal relationship, from when they were partnered up to the world championships.

The Strictly couple told Holly and Phil all about their new venture - but fans were all waiting for Phil to ask the pair about the effect Katya's kiss with Seann Walsh had on their relationship.

And they didn't have to wait long as Phil said: "We also have to talk about the peaks and troughs of your relationship. Are they covered in the show"

Katya quickly said that the show only covers their career from the beginning to the championships - with no need to go into the Strictly drama.

Katya said: "I keep wondering what's going to drag on longer, the kiss or Brexit."

With Neil backing her up, saying firmly: " We've moved on and the show is a celebration of our 11 years together."

And fans couldn't cope with the awkwardness - taking to social media in their droves.

One said: "Well that was awkward, something not quite right with Katya & Neil as a couple. Katya really over compensating and trying way too hard."

Another said: "Keep telling yourself Neil that you're 'over it' and you've 'moved on'.... we all believe you."

And a third said: "Katya Jones bored by how the kiss with Seann Jones is still being talked about. I don't know about anyone else but it's all I can think of when I look at her now."

Phil also asked the couple if they knew if they would be partnered up with celebrities this year, or be backing dancers.

And the pair confirmed they didn't know until a couple of weeks beforehand - but Neil said he would love to get a celebrity partner this year.
