Fans noticed this awkward exchange, leading to a strong reaction on social media. Many began sharing their thoughts, sparking discussions.
Katya and Wynne later addressed the incident in a video. Katya began, “Hello everybody, it’s Wynne and Katya here. We just wanted to say we were just messing around in the Clauditorium on Saturday night and just want to say sorry.”

Wynne added, “It was a silly joke. Yes, sorry.” He later posted a caption saying, “Apologies for this tonight, we were just messing around. We really are amazing friends. The high-fives are a running joke.”
However, some fans were not satisfied with their explanation. They pointed out that the video only addressed the high-five and ignored the hand incident, which caused discomfort for Katya. One viewer commented, “How is that a joke? The refusal to high-five, fine. But the hand on her stomach, and her moving it away, looking uncomfortable? How is that a joke?”
Another wrote, “What about when he moved his hand across her stomach and she moved it away?”

One X user expressed anger, saying, “Wynne should be off the show for inappropriate behavior. Katya had to deal with unwanted touching and then be part of this apology video. The BBC should be ashamed.”
Another comment added, “Why did she have to apologize? Clearly doing this to keep her job. Now I understand Amanda Abingdon’s experience better. BBC bosses are terrible at handling these situations.”
The incident has left many viewers questioning the show’s handling of such moments and sparked further conversations online.
