Shirley Ballas has urged fans to "respect each other" as she reacted to apologies she'd received following a flurry of hurtful messages from Strictly Come Dancing viewers over the weekend.
The head judge of the BBC dance competition faced furious backlash over her choice to save Richie Anderson and Giovanni Pernice over Fleur East and Vito Coppola this week.
She previously faced criticism for the comments she made towards comedian Ellie Taylor during Movie Week.
