As a result of the comment, the star was axed from the Strictly live tour. But soon, a video emerged of him sending a sex toy to his co-star Jamie, which both were heavily criticised for. In a recent statement, Wynne said his BBC contract was not renewed and he will not be back with the BBC for his radio show.

However, hours before the announcement, he shared a spiritual quote on his Stories featuring isolating clips of trains on empty platforms, parks and outer space.

The AI voice narrated the clip, saying: "First you suffer, then you awaken, and only then do you begin to ascend. Strange, isn't it? That pain is not a punishment, but a summons.

"A knock on the inner door that says wake up, not to the but to yourself. You see, suffering shakes the foundation of who you think you are so that you may discover who you truly are and when that veil lifts, something extraordinary happens.

"You stop identifying with the wound and begin identifying with the witness. This is awakening. From here, ascension isn't about floating off into the clouds; it's about returning fully to the present, unburdened by the past.

"Undistracted by illusion, unmoved by the ego's hunger for control. You begin to live as the soul, not the story and you realise that pain didn't break you, it built the staircase and now you're rising."

In Wynne's statement a few hours later, he told fans: "My beloved Wynners, From the very depths of my heart — thank you. These past few months, your love has been the light in my darkest days. Every message, every word of encouragement, every moment you stood by me has carried me through more than you could ever know.

"It breaks my heart to say the has decided not to renew my contract so I won’t be returning to my radio show. I’m gutted. That show wasn’t just work — it was home. It was us. We laughed, we cried, we sang like nobody was listening. And somehow, through the airwaves, we became a family."

He continued: "But here’s what I believe with everything I’ve got: what we built cannot end here. So — deep breath — here goes... We’re getting the band back together. The Wynne Evans Show is coming back, live every day from 9am–12pm on a new app, on Alexa and (we don’t have to say 'smart speaker' anymore!) and at www.wynneevansshow.co.uk.

"This is our next adventure. And I need you more than ever. We will have great music, my question of the day, the mystery voice, your soundtrack stories and so much more, because we have each other again."
