A popular star from Strictly Come Dancing has recently suffered a painful injury just days before the upcoming live show. It has been reported that professional dancer Nadiya Bychkova injured her thumb during training and it was so severe that it caused swelling and bruising.
Unfortunately, Nadiya and her partner, Olympian Tom Dean, were the first pair to be eliminated from the competition this season. However, the pros were still training for a future group dance when the incident occurred.
According to sources, Nadiya had a bad fall and landed on her hand, causing her thumb to snap. The on-site medics quickly attended to her and an X-ray confirmed that she had broken her thumb. Despite the injury, Nadiya is determined to not let anyone down and still plans to participate in the pre-recorded group dance.
The 35-year-old dancer will also be present for the live show on Saturday, showing her commitment to the show. A source revealed that Nadiya's fellow pros may have to handle her with care during rehearsals and filming.
This news comes after another contestant, Nick Knowles, shared that he had recently undergone major surgery. Due to his injuries, he was unable to participate in the previous week's show and was ultimately eliminated. He is now recovering in the hospital and shared a video explaining his bicep surgery and the need for knee surgery as well.
In addition to Nadiya's injury, professional dancer Amy Dowden will also be absent from this week's live show. She was rushed to the hospital during the last live show and her celebrity partner, JB Gill, will be dancing with Lauren Oakley instead. The BBC has confirmed that Amy is doing better and they hope she will be able to return to the show next week.
Amid all the injuries and illnesses this season, Nadiya has also faced personal struggles. She recently split from her former partner and fellow Strictly pro, Kai Widdrington. The two had been together for two years but decided to end things due to their busy schedules. Nadiya has since revealed that they are not as close as they used to be, but she is still looking forward to dancing with him on the show.
As we await updates on Nadiya's injury and her return to the show, it is clear that the Strictly family is supportive and determined to put on a great show for their fans. Let's hope for a speedy recovery for all the injured dancers and a successful live show on Saturday!
