After the 43-year-old actor announced his exit from the dance show last week, a source claiming to be close to the show alleged that Morrison was “fired” from the series over “an inappropriate relationship with a female contestant”. He was fired after they did their own investigation.” The source said Morrison and the unidentified female contestant “never met up off-set.” “It was just messages that crossed the line,” they claimed. “It’s really unfortunate that I have to sit here and defend myself and my family against blatantly untrue statements made anonymously, but I have nothing to hide,” he said in a video posted to Instagram. Morrison had been part of a new panel of judges for the 17th season of the hit dancing competition, appearing alongside Jojo Siwa, Stephen “tWitch” Boss, and returning host Cat Deeley.
