News from behind the scenes at BBC's Strictly Come Dancing has been shared by contestant Fleur East. The star, who takes to the dance floor with Vito Coppola, revealed that four stars have been left "very very ill".
Speaking on her radio show on Monday, October 17, Fleur explained: "There were a few mentions on Saturday night, but it was a tough week for a lot of people in the competition." She continued: "Hamza [Yassin] was very, very sick, so was Will [Mellor] and so was Kym [Marsh] and we didn’t say anything on Saturday but Vito [Coppola] was really ill last week too. I got one full day of rehearsal with him."
At the weekend it was Matt Goss and dance partner Nadiya Bychkova alongside Kym Marsh and professional dancer Graziano Di Prima who found themselves in the bottom two and ready to face the dance off. The result saw Matt and Nadiya heading home.
