Seann Walsh's ex-girlfriend Rebecca Humphries is "glad" that photos of the Strictly Come Dancing contestant kissing pro Katya Jones came out in the media.

After the pictures surfaced, Katya said that her marriage to husband Neil Jones was as strong as ever, but actress Rebecca publicly dumped Seann, and said she was keeping the cat.

Speaking to podcast The Hotbed, Humphries has now explained: "I'm glad that it happened this way, because otherwise I would never have known that I am not crazy.

"So I'm glad it came out, I know I'm embroiled in this television programme's history now – I obviously thought it would be because I went on it and won it!

"But it's just my circumstance and I can't feel bitter about it, I can't feel angry or vengeful about it, it's just how it is, really."

Humphries went on to say that her response wasn't even about the kiss itself.

"I'm not this puritanical Mary Whitehouse character who thinks that snogging someone when they're drunk is not okay under any circumstance," she said.

"I'm absolutely not perfect and I'm also an actress and I've experienced watching these sorts of things happen in professional environments myself as well, as an observer, I should say, so I know it can happen.

"I know these things happen but I hope that it's clear that I wasn't responding to that particular incident; it was the attempt by a person to make me question myself in order to get away with doing whatever they liked."
