Strictly Come Dancing’s Tess Daly ‘keeps Vernon Kay in the doghouse’ after sexting scandal with Rhian Sugden, says DJ Johnny Vaughan
The DJ took a pop at pal Vernon Kay's marriage while hosting charity night on Radio X
DJ JOHNNY Vaughan has joked that pal Vernon Kay lives in wife Tess Daly’s “doghouse” following his sexting scandal.
Johnny appeared to take a pop at workmate Vern getting caught a second time sending flirty texts to Page 3 model Rhian Sugden.
The boys are both DJs on Radio X. But Kay, 42, missed owner Global’s Make Some Noise charity night on Thursday and Johnny blamed it on him being in Tess’s bad books.
Speaking backstage, the former Big Breakfast star, 50, said: “None of the breakfast lot from Radio X are here today.
“I think (Chris]) Moyles will be in his house, Vernon will probably be in Tess’s doghouse. Again. He lives there! I stay with him sometimes. It’s like a large kennel with a bunk. He’s always in there. It’s massive — it’s such a big doghouse.”

In March The Sun revealed Vernon had sent Rhian, 30, hundreds of texts and repeatedly talked of secretly meeting at a hotel.
He was first caught texting her racy messages in 2010, leaving Strictly host Tess, 47, crushed and almost ending their marriage.
After his latest embarrassment, she was said to have “torn strips off him” and given him one last chance. The couple, who have two daughters, were thought to have patched it up on holiday.
