Former Strictly Come Dancing judge Dame Arlene Phillips has shared her opinion on social media following Alison Hammond's public apology after 'condoning' crowds singing over theatre performers on ITV's This Morning last week.
Dame Arlene was a judge on Strictly Come Dancing from the show’s first season in 2004 until 2008 and has thanked Alison for her recent apology, however said that she has "no idea" what it is like for the theatre performers.
It comes after the performance of The Bodyguard had to be scrapped in Manchester due to people singing in the crowd singing and shouting over the cast. Alison, 46, said in a statement that she is 'truly sorry' following her comments made on the Wednesday, April 5 segment on This Morning, adding that she has the 'utmost respect' for the talented theatre performers.
