Strictly's Fleur East addresses 'rough' time on show as fans left worried

Fleur East made an admission on her 'rough' time on Strictly Come Dancing as fans were left worried there'd be more heartache ahead for her this weekend.

While former X Factor finalist Fleur was the first contestant on Strictly this year to land a perfect score, when she and pro partner Vito Coppola got 40/40 for their Couple's Choice routine to a Destiny's Child medley in Blackpool, the Sax singer has also tasted the upset o f landing in the dance-off three times now, each time after getting good scores.

Fleur and Vito looked gutted at being told they'd dropped into the danger zone again last week, surviving against Ellie Taylor and Johannes Radebe, meaning they were one of six couples left going into the live quarter final, which took place on Friday rather than Saturday, as the BBC moved Strictly for the World Cup.
