Host Tess Daly said to Craig: “In the VT you were fighting in Rhys’ corner. Did he live up to your expectations?”
Craig insisted that he was the only one to see potential in Rhys.
He said: “I was. I was the only one that said he could do it!
“You should have heard, actually, what they said that wasn’t on the camera. I could repeat it now, but I won’t. Just saying.”
Motsi looked shocked by Craig’s comments, as he continued: “I was right! You absolutely smashed it. I could have had a little bit of a smoother bounce, but I loved it.”
However, Motsi wasn’t going to let it go as she said: “You are naughty, naughty, naughty!”
Craig then said: “Listen Diana Ross…”
Motsi added: “You are not invited anymore in the room.”
Many viewers watching were amused by Craig’s playful remark to Motsi.
One person said on Twitter: “So funny Craig calling Motsi Diana Ross tonight.”
Another added: “Craig [laughing face emojis], Diana Ross.”
However, some people took issue with the quip.
One tweeted: “Unnecessary Diana Ross quip from Craig Revel Horwood towards Motsi there!”
