Richard Madeley and Susanna Reid wasted no time in sharing their own thoughts as they discussed Shirley Ballas' future on Strictly Come Dancing. An interview with the dance contest's head judge was released over the weekend in which she said she didn't know if she'd be back for the next series later this year.
Shirley, who has been the head judge on the BBC One show since 2017, has, after five years, suggested she may never return to Strictly after trolls made her life hell. While talks are ongoing, the 62-year-old is yet to sign for a new series after the onslaught of abuse during the last series left her "crying and emotional".
While the show's judging panel, which also includes Craig Revel Horwood, Motsi Mabuse and Anton Du Beke, often find their critique of the competing couples coming under fire, Shirley has heartbreakingly said she hit "an all-time low" as the hate messages poured in after every show in the last series.
