Strictly Come Dancing 2022 LATEST: Fans shocked as soap star DUMPED in tense dance-off & Helen Skelton cruises to safety
STRICTLY’S Kym Marsh has been dumped from the show after a tense dance-off against Molly Rainford in Saturday’s results show.
Soap star Will Mellor bagged a staggering 39 out of 40 and was pictured holding back tears as the Strictly Come Dancing judges read out his scores, while Helen Skelton also stunned the judges with her performance, earning the same score as the Corrie actor.
But the public decided Molly Rainford and Carlos Gu would face Kym Marsh and Graziano Di Prima for the dreaded dance-off – with their places in the Quarter Final at risk.
But it was Kym that the judges sent home, with the actress and presenter saying: “Honestly I’ve loved every single second that I’ve been here. I never thought I’d get to this stage in a million years. I have to say, it’s all down to this man (Di Prima) here, he is just wonderful and he will be my friend forever.”
And fans were emotional to see her go, with one writing: “Can’t believe Kym & Graziano got eliminated,” while another tweeted: “What a performance from msm4rsh and GrazianoDiPrima – we loved watching you.”
