Mabuse stood by her decision to award Tilly Ramsay a seven after Horwood gave her a two

Tensions flared on the 'Strictly Come Dancing' judging panel on Saturday night as Motsi Mabuse and Craig Revel Horwood clashed over his 'brutal' comments towards Tilly Ramsay.

The drama unfolded after Ramsay and her professional partner Nikita Kuzmin performed a Charleston to 'Don't Stop Me Now' by Queen. Horwood was unimpressed, awarding the pair just two points, while Mabuse gave them a seven.

Mabuse defended her decision, saying: "I'm going home! I'm going home! I'm not going to sit here and listen to this. I'm not going to sit here and take it anymore. I'm going home!"

Horwood has been criticized for his harsh critiques in the past

This is not the first time Horwood has been criticized for his harsh critiques. In 2019, he was accused of bullying contestant Catherine Tyldesley after he told her she looked like "a sack of potatoes." He later apologized for his comments.

Some viewers have accused Horwood of being biased against certain contestants. In 2018, he was accused of favoritism towards Stacey Dooley after he gave her a perfect score for her Viennese Waltz, despite her making several mistakes.
