Bobby Brazier blundered on Loose Women today (Wednesday December 20) as viewers slammed him for a “rude” remark about his Strictly partner Dianne Buswell.
The EastEnders actor appeared as guest alongside dad Jeff Brazier to chat about his stint on the 2023 series of the BBC One dance contest.
However, Bobby endured an awkward moment on live TV following the jibe, which even Jeff suggested was “unfair”.
Bobby Brazier: Strictly runner up appear on Loose Women today
The bizarre utterance from Bobby came as host Christine Lampard suggested to Jeff his son had started Strictly as a young man and had become “like a fully grown man off the end of this experience”.
Failing to evidence that, 20-year-old Bobby responded: “Firstly, I’ve been hanging around an old lady for the last three-and-a-half months.”
I’ve been hanging around an old lady for the last three-and-a-half months.
Panelists and members of the audience in the studio seemed unsure how to react to the Strictly final runner up’s observation as Bobby simpered, and Jeff smiled.
Jeff then said: “Oh that’s unfair on Dianne.”
That was met with a few uneasy laughs, as Jeff continued: “Really unfair. You’ll be in trouble if she’s watching this.”
Dianne, who was born in 1989, might not have been watching along however, as she’s currently back in Australia visiting her dad, who has been receiving cancer treatment.
Stacey Solomon then swiftly moved the topic on to whether Jeff fancied a go at Strictly himself.
