JAMES Bye broke his silence today after getting the boot from Strictly Come Dancing over the weekend. The 38-year-old, who has played Martin Fowler in the BBC One soap since 2014, found himself in the dreaded dance-off against singer and broadcaster Fleur East following a Halloween-inspired live show.

Speaking today after getting the axe, James said:  “I have had some incredible support over the weekend and it has been a crazy couple of months and I just want to quickly say thank you to every single one of you who took the time to either vote for Amy or I or just sent us a message. “I think that sometimes people think we don’t read the messages but I can promise you I read every single of them and there are times when your messages helped me get through those tough days so I want to thank you again for that.” The actor continued in an Instagram video: “I also want to say a massive thank you to my family.

Obviously you guys don’t get to see a lot of that, the support from behind the scenes is what gets everyone through this process because it is a full on thing to do.” Read More on Strictly FOOT-BALLROOM Strictly Come Dancing in massive schedule shake-up and will move to new dayGOOD-BYE Strictly fans left heartbroken as James Bye fights back tears after elimination His wife Victoria then entered the room and he said:  “This is my wife Victoria for those of you who don’t know, who was basically a solo parent for my entire Strictly journey so thank you sweetheart. “Because obviously without you, I wouldn’t have been able to do it and all the grandparents out there.

Obviously we had a lot of help. Victoria was supporting me from the sidelines every single week.” Victoria was heard saying she got a “numb bum” watching him,.
