Strictly Come Dancing star Thomas Skinner has taken to social media with a lengthy rant about being ‘kicked down’ in recent weeks.

Ever since The Apprentice star, 34, was announced as a competitor on the 23rd season of the dance show – which kicked off on Saturday – he’s been in the headlines for various controversies.

Skinner has long voiced his political views on social media, and was pictured at a barbecue and beers with JD Vance just before the Strictly announcement.

He also recently confessed to cheating on his wife just weeks after they married in 2022 and he apologised for storming out of a Strictly press conference after spotting some ‘messages about his personal story’ on a journalist’s phone.

‘Life ain’t easy. I’ve been kicked down and called every name under the sun recently and probably some of it I deserve, as yes I ain’t always right,’ Skinner began in a new lengthy new social media post.’
