As a seasoned television journalist with years of experience under my belt, I have covered countless stories and scandals in the entertainment industry. However, none have left me as bewildered and dismayed as the recent allegations surrounding Strictly Come Dancing.


Nadiya Bychkova, Amy Dowden, and Dianne Buswell brushed off any hint of discord in the Strictly dance camp en route to rehearsals on Wednesday.

The scandalous incident that affected the BBC dance show was dismissed by the skilled dancers, who put on radiant smiles for the photographs.

Nadiya, aged 34, expressed great joy as she resumed her role among her colleagues for the upcoming Strictly rehearsals.

As a devoted fan, I’ve been deeply saddened to hear the disturbing reports about my cherished BBC show. Lately, it’s been under fire for accusations of “maltreatment and intimidation.” Former contestants have come forward with their stories, adding to the growing pile of claims.

The experts of Strictly Come Dancing are alleged to be angry because they feel abandoned by their previous famous dancing partners.

As I excitedly stepped off the bus in Camden, London, I couldn’t help but playfully lift my legs high into the air, looking forward to practicing for the upcoming television show.

The Polish ballroom dancer appeared adorable in a spacious pink blouse, accessorized with striped shorts and white Converse sneakers.

She added a bandana and round sunglasses that coordinated with her outfit, and carried her necessities in a black backpack.

Ensuring she was fuelled up and ready for her gruelling session, Jowita enjoyed an iced coffee.

I, as a devoted observer, noticed Johannes entering with a laden tray bearing drinks. Underneath his untucked shirt, he wore a white vest and completed the look with trousers and trainers.

To enhance his appearance, he put on a New York Yankees baseball hat and sunglasses. In one hand, he carried a leather holdall.

Dianne Buswell, Neil Jones, Katya Jones, Carlos Gu, and Nikita Kuzmin were among the other well-known figures observed making their way to the same destination.

On Taylor, Nancy Xu displayed a token of approval for the program by forming a heart symbol with her hand upon her arrival at the broadcasting facility on a Tuesday.

The next day, I couldn’t contain my excitement as I prepared to join the esteemed cast once again. My face split into a broad grin at the thought of being back with them.

As she walked off, Nancy then stuck a thumbs up to photographers.

As Nikita approached, he gave another peace sign, this time wearing a sleeveless Ralph Lauren cricket vest and shorts.

In the past few weeks, the show has been embroiled in a escalating scandal. Several of its prominent actors have alleged instances of abuse and bullying against their partners while filming for the BBC.

As an obsessed fan, I can’t help but feel deeply concerned as I follow the latest developments in the entertainment industry. With the professionals resuming their training this week, whispers are circulating that many among them are growing increasingly uneasy. They allege that BBC bosses have not done enough to shield them from the ever-increasing number of celebrities coming forward with allegations.

A reliable source shared with The Mirror that this situation is inflicting significant stress and mental turmoil on numerous people, as each day brings new allegations.

While it’s true that a few celebrities in the last two decades may have had unfortunate experiences, this is an exception rather than the rule. The entire situation seems to reek of lawyers eagerly seeking out clients in search of lawsuits.

Additionally, dancers have requested that BBC executives implement more rigorous mental health evaluations during the selection process for the program. They cite examples of similar shows on ITV, like Love Island and Dancing on Ice, as inspiration for this recommendation.

Love Island producers ensure a thorough pre-filming evaluation process for the Islanders. This involves assessments by an independent doctor, a psychological consultant, and reviews of each contestant’s medical records from their personal GP, all to verify their health histories.

The insider commented: “The reality show is challenging, and some celebrities aren’t cut out for its demands. They merely seek the limelight and media exposure. However, things don’t function in such a simple manner.”

I was absolutely devastated when the news broke about my idol, Giovanni, being suspended at the age of 33. The scandal ignited after allegations of off-camera misconduct were levied against him by Amanda Abbington, 50, and two other ex-celebrity partners. These accusations, he fiercely denies.

Last year, Amanda left the show due to “personal reasons.” In a recent conversation with The Sun on Sunday, she revealed, “Giovanni’s actions towards me were unwarranted, hurtful, unkind, and disrespectful. I couldn’t just stand by and let him treat others in such a manner.”

Subsequently, Italian dancer Graziano Di Prima was let go from the show earlier in March due to accusations that he physically assaulted and disrespected his dance partner Zara McDermott, age 27, during practice sessions.

On Sunday, it was alleged that he pursued her relentlessly while shouting offensive words, causing her such fear that she sought refuge in a locked toilet.

In her own words, Zara spoke out about the scandal, sharing that although her experience on Strictly was ideal in many ways, spending time with Graziano in particular, there were unfortunate incidents that left her deeply distressed.

The thirty-year-old dancer acknowledged kicking his ex-partner, yet expressed that other accusations don’t match his recollection of the event.

After the accusations surfaced, even more celebrities shared their unpleasant experiences and encounters on the show, among them being James and Ola Jordan.

Janette got involved in the predicament when it was disclosed by her ex-famous companion, Will Bayley, that he had been unable to walk for half a year following an injury sustained during the program.

A Paralympian, aged 36, shared that Janette had criticized his jump from a table during studio rehearsals, labeling it “unacceptable.” This criticism led him to repeat the jump, resulting in his leg cracking and inflicting a lifelong injury.

I went through a traumatic experience on the show and strongly advocated for significant improvements. However, I want to make it clear that I hold no blame towards Janette whatsoever. In fact, I find her to be incredibly supportive, highly professional, and exceptionally talented.

The BBC was informed by a spokesperson for Janette: “Janette enjoyed herself immensely while dancing with Will. One of her most cherished experiences on the program was their contemporary routine as partners.”

As a lifestyle expert, I believe in putting others’ well-being first, just as this celebrity did during her time on Strictly. Throughout my partnership with her famous beau, ensuring his safety and enjoyment was my top priority. I’m proud to share that no complaints were ever filed against me, and I’ve managed to maintain lasting friendships with all my dance partners, including Will.

Previously this week, Peter spoke up about the escalating dispute, sharing that his interactions with the matter had been favorable and advocating for transparency in the ensuing investigation.

In his OK! article, he remarked: “I’ve been following the news regarding Strictly, but I’ll just share my personal perspective from being a part of it.”

Surrounding me were many friendly and wonderful individuals. The allegations we face remain just that – accusations – until they are confirmed as truths.

Instead, such occurrences should not take place in secret. This situation will prove challenging for Strictly and everyone connected to it.

‘The show could be in the spotlight for a different reason this year.’ 

James Jordan added more intensity to the Strictly controversy when Steve Backshall accused Ola, James’ wife and his dancing partner at the time, of bullying him during their participation in the show back in 2014.

A previous “Strictly” dance professional made a light-hearted remark on social media about a long-time TV presenter following reports that he had filed a complaint with the BBC against Ola, his professional partner, for her allegedly rude and impatiens behavior.

In a playful yet controversial response, the seasoned adventurer, known for his encounters with Great White sharks and venomous snakes, quipped back at a skeptical Strictly fan who doubted his emotional reaction to the 5ft 4in dancer James: “Could you lend a hand here please?”

Some reports suggest that several Strictly celebrity contestants have formed a private group to discuss and validate their individual experiences and allegations.

According to TopMob’s latest report, Tess Daly and Claudia Winkleman might issue an apology at the start of the upcoming series for any perceived abusive treatment towards celebrities, as a possible means to salvage the show.

I, as a dedicated follower of BBC news, understand that insiders at the organization are eagerly anticipating the start of the investigation into the recent scandal. They reportedly yearn to put an end to this matter right away when it officially kicks off in September. Sources close to the situation have shared that they can’t wait for the proceedings to begin.

The presenters might be required to discuss it at the beginning of the first broadcast and may apologize if they receive criticisms from Amanda, Zara, and Steve.

As a lifestyle expert looking back on this exciting season, I have the privilege of sharing some inside information with you. This year marks an impressive milestone for Strictly Come Dancing – its 20th anniversary! In honor of this momentous occasion, we can expect a grand celebration filled with nostalgia and glimpses into the show’s rich history.

“The BBC is eager to move on from the recent events and begin the show as soon as possible.”
