Vernon Kay has issued a public apology following an influx of messages from viewers of The One Show expressing disappointment with his recent appearance. In response to a query from one of his BBC Radio 2 show listeners during today’s broadcast, Vernon, who hosted The One Show on Monday, October 27, shared that numerous people had contacted him about the issue.

During a segment of his show, Vernon was asked about not wearing his baggy jeans on the BBC program. This likely stems from his earlier revelation on Radio 2 that he had faced criticism for a fashion choice he described as “horrendous.”

Despite the backlash, Vernon stood by his decision to wear the controversial trousers again on The One Show. He had bought the jeans during a shopping trip in Central London with his youngest daughter, Amber, who had recommended them to him.

However, when he wore the jeans to the Strictly Come Dancing studios to support his wife, Tess Daly, he faced widespread mockery.

Vernon explained that he received feedback from viewers who were slightly unhappy that he didn’t wear the baggy jeans on The One Show. He clarified that jeans were not suitable for the program and opted for corduroy trousers instead, as he believed The One Show had a different tone compared to his previous appearances.

Responding to a listener named Rach, who expressed missing the baggy trousers, Vernon acknowledged the sentiment and apologized for the choice he made.

Reflecting on the fashion incident, Vernon mentioned the mixed reactions he received and shared that Tess Daly advised him to get rid of the jeans. Despite this, he humorously insisted that he liked them and joked about the possibility of getting blown away in them due to windy conditions.

Vernon’s lighthearted take on the situation resonated with many, showcasing his ability to handle criticism in good spirits.
