DANCING On Ice fans warned Ryan Thomas he had made the wrong move in a video he posted.
The 39-year-old took to Instagram to share a video on how he prepared his tea.
In the video, Ryan placed a tea bag in a cup, followed by adding milk.
He then poured boiling water into the cup and took a satisfying sip, but the order was branded controversial.
One user commented: “Water first then milk… and it has to be Yorkshire tea.”
Charley Webb chimed in and commented: “Milk first? Absolutely not.”
It’s wrong it’s the wrong tea bag to start, always water first let that tea soak,” complained another.
A fourth joked: “Nah, milk then water for me .”
Whilst a fifth said: “Nooooo milk after hot water after bag has immersed for a short time lol.”
Actor Warren Brown commented: “He’s gone milk first!”
Ryan had two falls during last week’s episode of Dancing on Ice.
Speaking to hosts Holly Willoughby and Stephen Mulhern about his performance, he said: “I’ve not hurt myself, I just hope my kids aren’t watching this one because it’s so embarrassing.
“Can I just say to everyone here, that is the most important thing. Just hearing your voices, thank you so much.”
Ryan has been paired with pro dancer Amani Fancy on the series.
They received a score of 5.5 from guest judge Johnny Weir, while Oti Mabuse and Christopher Dean, alongside Jayne Torvill, awarded them a 6.5.
