Former Strictly professional James said: "Do not start playing with the rough boys, you're going to get hurt.

"You're used to playing with little soft boys, don't play with real boys."

To which American model Austin quipped: "Yeah, because the dancer's the rough boy!"

Fans of the show were quick to jump onto social media to brand James' comments as "homophobic".
