AMES Jordan has scoffed at claims wife Ola Jordan bullied her dance partner ten years ago on Strictly Come Dancing.
The BBC show is facing its biggest crisis as more celebrities share horror stories from behind the scenes.
Ola, 41, has now been accused of bullying Steve Backshall and was branded “cold, rude and tough” to work with.
And it comes after her husband James was forced to hit back after a viral clip of him calling his celeb partner “fat” circulated online.
TV explorer Steve, 51, reportedly lodged a complaint with the BBC back in 2014.
It is claimed he found Ola to be “rude and impatient” which undermined his confidence.
Ola has yet to respond, but her husband has taken to Instagram and shared a sarcastic tweet from one Strictly fan today.
It jokingly suggested that James has been living in fear of his wife.
The person tagged Ola and James, writing: “@The_OlaJordan stands 5’4” tall and weighs the same as a Pringle packet, she can reduce hardened explorers to tears.
“She’s the dance floor assassin @bbcstrictly and we need a fund me page for poor @The_JamesJordan who must live in terror daily.”
James shared a screenshot of the tweet on his Instagram Story and wrote over the top: “Please!!! Someone help me” alongside a distressed face emoji.
The Sun has contacted Ola’s representatives for comment.
It is understood that Steve complained directly to a Strictly producer after their Halloween-themed Charleston.
Following this, bosses called Ola in for a meeting and agreed that she and Steve would be accompanied at all times while they remained in the competition.
At the time, Steve spoke about the physical demands of the series.
He told the Daily Mail that he was unable to point the toes of his left foot due to a fused ankle from a near-fatal climbing accident in 2008.
The action star revealed he was in “constant pain” during training and took painkillers every day.
He said: “It has absolutely broken me. You are training all day long on hard wooden floors wearing dance shoes that have no give in them at all, and no cushioning.
“The impact travels straight all the way through my body and I’m just falling apart.”
On Friday James was forced to hit back after a viral clip of him calling his celeb partner Georgina Bouzova “fat” circulated online.
The former show star was seen raging at Georgina as they argued in rehearsals back in 2006.
But James told how he has never had complaints from his Strictly co-stars in eight years of being on the show.
Strictly Come Dancing’s bullying crisis was sparked earlier this year when Amanda Abbington complained about axed Giovanni Pernice.
And professional Graziano Di Prima, 30, was earlied this month fired by the BBC following claims he hit, spat at and kicked former celebrity partner Zara McDermott, 27, during rehearsals.
