Amanda Abbington Receives Well-Wishes from Strictly’s Claudia and Tess During Medical Break

Support from Strictly Hosts for Amanda Abbington

Strictly Come Dancing’s Claudia Winkleman and Tess Daly, the show’s beloved hosts, have extended their support to Amanda Abbington, who, along with her professional partner Giovanni Pernice, had to miss a week on the competition due to medical reasons.

This news was confirmed by Janette Manrara on Friday night, and the hosts shared an update on Saturday, October 21.

Amanda’s Absence Due to Medical Reasons

Claudia and Tess, after welcoming the professional dancers and celebrity partners to the dancefloor, announced that Amanda and Giovanni were missing from the lineup for that week due to medical reasons.

Amanda, unfortunately, was unable to perform.

According to the competition’s rules, she received a bye and, if all goes well, is expected to make a return to the ballroom the following week.

Claudia and Tess conveyed their collective support and well wishes to Amanda during this challenging time.

Silent on Social Media

Neither Amanda Abbington nor Giovanni Pernice had shared updates on their social media accounts regarding their unexpected break from the competition.

Janette Manrara had originally broken the news on It Takes Two on Friday evening, expressing her hope for Amanda’s swift recovery and best wishes.

Amanda’s Strong Run in the Competition

Amanda had a strong showing in the competition the previous week, earning an impressive 31 points and securing a joint-fourth place on the leaderboard.

However, due to her medical situation, she had to miss a week.

Fortunately, the show’s protocols allow her and Giovanni to return for another week.

This is in contrast to previous instances when contestants, like Nicola Adams and Katya Jones in 2020, had to leave the show when a positive COVID-19 test meant extended self-isolation and missed shows.

Continuation of Strictly Come Dancing

Despite these challenges, Strictly Come Dancing continues to bring joy and entertainment to its viewers, promising more dazzling performances and surprises for the upcoming episodes.

Sending Best Wishes

This update and show of support from the Strictly hosts reaffirm the camaraderie and spirit of encouragement that permeates the show, and the audience eagerly anticipates Amanda’s return to the dancefloor.
