Jasmine Joyce-Butchers has defended her involvement in a post-match TikTok dance after Wales' heavy Six Nations defeat by England.

The Red Roses ran in 11 tries in front of a record Principality Stadium crowd of over 21,000 on Saturday.

England prop Sarah Bern and Wales full-back Joyce-Butchers ed BBC Sport pundits for a live post-match interview and together performed a routine.

Bern had done something similar with England fans after last weekend's win against Italy in York which went viral.

But Joyce-Butchers' participation sparked backlash on social media after Wales had just lost by 55 points to their arch-rivals on home turf, with some calling it embarrassing and questioning the player's professionalism.

But the three-time Olympian was quick to defend her actions.
