Seann Walsh was eliminated from Strictly Come Dancing after he performed a Viennese Waltz with Katya Jones to Screamin Jay Hawkins I Put A Spell On You.

And now, his ex Rebecca Humphries has given that classic a spin in savage and epic fashion.

Rebecca – who dumped Seann after he was pictured kissing his professional partner Katya – performed the Bette Midler version of I Put A Spell On You from the film Hocus Pocus, and slipped a vicious dig at her ex into the lyrics.

The actress attended the Amusical Halloween show in East London and shared a video of herself singing the Winifred Sanderson twist on the classic song.

She must have known it was a dig at Seann, singing the tune that saw him kicked off Strictly – but she made it even more painful when instead of singing: Its been 300 years right down to the day, Rebecca sang: Ive been dead for five and a half years.

And how long were she and Seann together? Er, five and a half years.

Buuuurn.

Rebecca posted on Instagram: Last night @amusicalshow let me be Sally Bowles and then Winnifred Sanderson when I won (?). They asked ages ago and yeah, it occurred to me to pull out and sit at home hoovering kids trick or treating sweets into my mouth instead but turns out you only live once.

I have no real recollection of this happening as I was so nervous I didnt have dinner and downed a lot of wine onstage. Wouldnt recommend that but would recommend this show – in this little East London Club @msjaydeadams @kiri_pritchard_mclean @davecribb et al have created this bastion of kindness and positivity and MUSICAL THEATRE and oh, it was such a joy. I threw my head back and howled laughing.

Rebecca became our absolute idol when she issued a statement publicly dumping Seann, 32, when he was photographed passionately kissing Katya, 29, on Rebeccas birthday.

And since then, she has remained relatively quiet – although she did like a tweet reading Stay classy, Katya after the professional dancer joked that Seann would have soooo much material for his new tour.

Strictly viewers celebrated Seanns exit from the show on Halloween week, after he lost the dance-off to Graeme Swann and Oti Mabuse.

While he refused to do interviews on the red carpet at the Pride Of Britain Awards, Katya and her husband Neil Jones put on a united front as they posed for pictures together.
