A Strictly Come Dancing star has pulled out just hours before the third live show over health fears.
Neighbors star Stefan Dennis, 66, was paired up with dancing professional Dianne Buswell just a few weeks ago.
A statement from Strictly shared on Instagram read: “Due to illness over the past few days, Stefan Dennis has been advised to rest and, as a result, he will not dance this weekend.
“In line with the rules of Strictly, Stefan and Dianne will receive a bye through to next week when they will hopefully be able to dance again.”
