“Keep going Fr Ray, don’t give in to the bullies” – Singing priest receives massive support after vile harassment left him in tears




He’s a gentleman, plain and simple.

Fr Ray Kelly has brightened up the winter Sunday evenings with his dancing (yes, ok we get it, he’s not the best dancer in the world) but more over with his big smile, great attitude and brilliant entertaining way of giving the audience something smile and laugh at.

For some however, they just couldn’t accept Fr Ray’s wonderful talents for what they are and lowered themselves to disgusting harassing the poor man and his housekeeper over his participation in the show and how he wouldn’t withdraw.

Fat, horrible, hopeless, useless and terrible – just some of the awful vile harassment Fr Ray Kelly received over his participation in Dancing With The Stars.

Fr Ray said that he was left devastated and sadly even cried one night over the harassment he received.

Thankfully however, the public has gotten behind Fr Ray and has urged him to not give into the bullies. Social media users have said the following:
“Our daughter is Autistic. She had no interest in the show till she knew he was a priest. Every Sunday night she watches for him, praying for him to get through to next week. She jumps around the house when he does.”

“He’s not a great dancer but he’s a great entertainer and the only reason I watch the show”.

“What is wrong with people Fr ray has a right to be there if people vote him in my heart goes out to him come on Fr ray we are all behind you”

“He’s absolutely wonderful, he puts the entertainment into the show and the public are behind him. Keep going Fr Ray of sunshine, don’t give into the bullies. We’re with you!”
