Fans criticize Tess Daly for insensitive comment to Chris McCausland on Strictly Come Dancing

Fans of "Strictly Come Dancing" reacted strongly to a comment made by host Tess Daly to contestant Chris McCausland. After his Quickstep performance, Tess asked Chris if he could see how happy his partner, Dianne Buswell, was, despite Chris being visually impaired. Viewers expressed their outrage on social media, highlighting the insensitivity of the remark. Many pointed out that Chris, who has retinitis pigmentosa, cannot see Dianne's expressions, leading to widespread criticism of Tess's comment. Chris has previously shared his experiences with blindness, describing it as a hereditary condition. He has expressed determination to manage his situation while participating in the show. "Strictly Come Dancing" airs on Sunday nights on BBC One and BBC iPlayer.
