Yet there was no one the actor was more happy to see than his professional dancer partner Oti Mabuse at Mahiki night club in Mayfair on Saturday.

He’s a gent: BBC sports presenter Ore won Strictly with his professional partner Joanne Clifton, who has since traded in her dancing shoes on the show for a career in the West End
Danny and Oti made Strictly history in week 10 of 2016’s competition when they received the first ever full marks, an impressive 40, for a sizzling Samba.
He lost the Glitter Ball trophy to BBC sports presenter Ore and his professional partner Joanne Clifton, who has since traded in her dancing shoes on the show for a career in the West End.
In October 2017, the English actor confessed he was relieved he didn’t win the BBC show because he claimed it was ‘better’ for his career.
The hunk explained he would always be known as the Strictly Come Dancing winner rather than his sensational acting roles.
Reunion: Ore looked delighted to be joined by Janette as he placed a tender arm on her back to support her as she sashayed out of the venue in sky-scraper high stiletto boots
He told Daily Mail’s Weekend magazine: ‘I always say I didn’t lose, Ore won. And Oti and I won on the Strictly tour, so I got a version of the trophy.
‘My mum has it on her dining table, so every time I go home I see it in all its glory. I actually think it was probably best for my career that I didn’t win.
‘I mean, Ore will never be able to get away from the Strictly winner thing, even if it’s been the making of him.’
