Wynne Evans has said he has been dropped by the BBC, following his apology for using “inappropriate language” during the launch of the Strictly Come Dancing tour.
The Welsh opera singer will no longer be a BBC Radio Wales presenter, he announced on Friday.
On Instagram, he said: “My beloved Wynners, From the very depths of my heart – thank you.
“These past few months, your love has been the light in my darkest days. Every message, every word of encouragement, every moment you stood by me has carried me through more than you could ever know.
“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.”
