Former Strictly star James Jordan has fuelled the profession­al dancers pay feud, saying: “There is a lot of resentment”.

The dancers on the BBC show work up to 14 hours a day training their celebrity partners and choreograp­h the weekly group dances.

Last month, it was revealed the judges earn more than £150,000 each while Bruno Tonioli makes between £200,000 £250,000.

The profession­als are rumoured to be paid up to £ 80,000.

James said: “I think there is resentment but will they speak up about it?

“No, because they are still on the show.”
