Is it only men who have a problem attracting women who make this sort of remark?
I think that's probably more than the half of it. He comes across as an odious 'little man'. In life, we've probably all experienced the loud mouth, the eternal joke-teller, the one who attempts to turn every conversation to something sexual and clearly tries to convince anyone in earshot that he's such a guy!!!!
The usual reason for all the nonsense is that he's a bit of a loner, a nobody, not the person who mixes comfortably with women or is respectful and instinctively knows how to behave in company. He's normally the guy who is not 'getting any' - and that's how people will describe him. All the seedy tales in the world won't convince anyone that he's quite the Casanova. But he's just too daft to see that.
Evans was/is a trained Opera singer. Never going to be one of the 3 Tenors, or even Alfie Boe, but nevertheless that was what he did. Then, his head and maybe his wallet was turned by doing a (very infuriating) ad for an insurance company, which had him recognised everywhere he went. IMHO he's not unlike the irritating guy he was portraying.
His Wife divorced him. He fell into a depression. He was hugely overweight and at some stage considered suicide.
But counselling and medication and exercise allowed him to get a handle on life once again, he has said. His Opera-singing days seemed to be on the slide but he lost over 7 stones in weight, and learned to ballroom dance for Strictly. There have been too many unattractive and half-naked photographs of him (like Gregg Wallace) illustrating his weight loss, but his attitude constantly shows that he thinks he can do/say whatever he likes. No person with any common sense would behave as he has done recently.
He's the joker, the one who has to take centre stage. His attitude towards his dancing partner wasn't terribly respectful but she stuck up for him and he was given another chance. Then he feels the need to use very unpleasant language in front of not only his fellow dancers but also in front of the Husband of Janette Manrara, the target of his obscene remarks! Seriously ?
Again, nobody there was impressed. Maybe they're getting used to the sort of guy who has to get you involved in buttock-clenching moments, no filter, not able to know when he needs to just shut up and calm down.
For their own sakes, it seems the BBC has woken up and given him the push. There'll always be people like him, who behave really badly, and for whom a tiny bit of 'celebrity' is like a drug.
On telly, however, he can be turned off, although it won't be long before someone else may appear looking for their 15 minutes of notoriety.
Grans here would surely be most unlikely to be married to guys like him. We're hopefully too discerning and sensible for that. So, nobody needs to feel proud that their husbands or partners aren't like that. And most adult men really aren't - or if they are they're not likely to be reckless enough to risk ending up on their own by such ridiculously offensive displays in public.
This guy has probably trashed all opportunity of more work on t.v., ...it's happened to bigger fish than him. And I can't imagine what his Daughter must think of him.......
