“This year has been tough there’s no doubt about that… but I’ve just got to stay focused now!
“I’m still struggling and the pain is still there but I’m putting on a brave face I’ve got to stay strong [sic]!”
Fans of the show will be hoping all three celebrities recover quickly for their first dance with their professional partners in a matter of weeks.
It comes after it was reported the celebrity pairings had been leaked online.
Judge Anton du Beke reacted to the news, saying it was “irritating” there were people who wanted to spoil the show for fans.
He told Metro.co.uk: “That irritates me. I get irritated. I hate anybody who’s a spoiler.
“I can only think they take great pleasure from it and I just want to say grow up. Don’t spoil it for other people.”
Strictly Come Dancing airs on BBC One on Saturday 16th September at 6.45pm.
