I think you might be onto something. They were together before his accident. A dramatic change of lifestyle for them both. She did say a couple of weeks back that she ‘ felt like a woman again’ must be so tough for them both and as mentioned upthread there is a law suit pending regarding his accident. A lot for any couple to deal with. Who knows and maybe we never will but she obviously felt she couldn’t continue for whatever reason.

I sometimes watch Andre Rieu when I'm at my mum's as we're savages who like to snark at the enraptured weirdos in the crowd and the whole weird spectacle of it all. I'm wondering why our Andre has never performed on Strictly? He strikes me as perfect granny bait while a handful of pros awkwardly waft around him smugly playing his violin.
Michelle can bring her cello
I’ve booked too for the Palladium next year, went this year too with my youngest daughter. It’s a great show.
He's been on Strictly a few times, 3 or 4 I think.
If we're still posting our fave dances, Danny and Oti's American Smooth is my absolute favourite. Super romantic.
Only reason I even know is because my mam is a fan.
The one upside to him being on the show is you normally get a lovely ballroom pro dance to go along with it.
If we’re sharing glorious dances, I defy you to watch this and not wish you’d never purchased a tv.
So many brilliant things - Carol's bizarre face, skin tight trousers, bad singing - in the first few seconds. I need a compilation of all the bad dances now please!!
Just search for anything by Fiona Phillips. They’re all amazing due to the burning hatred her and Brendan had for each other.
The Vorderumba!!! Cursed dance.
God, remember when the couples used to enter the dancefloor like a proper competition and not start already entangled in whatever ugly MDF prop encapsulates this week's unnecessary theme?
James Jordan is just a bleep
Does he bring his weird, grinning, crinoline ladies with him? I’ve seemingly blocked his SCD appearances from memory.

Me too the horizontal tangoSo do I, he ain’t special
They're one of the weirdest bits of his shows. Also how everybody looks off their face like he's pumping out drugs into the atmosphere.
Funnily enough, I had much of the same thoughts. I didn’t have strong feelings about Amanda, she certainly could dance, but I found her a little on the chilly side – technically proficient, but without any ‘ooomph.’
However, I can’t imagine how it must’ve felt to her previously physically active and dynamic husband to see her dancing like that with Gio, full on foof-in-face and a near snog at the end of a dance. Must’ve made things at home at least slightly awkward I’d have thought unless he’s very secure in himself.
I loved it when they were ‘announced’ on to the floor, then curtsied/bowed at the end of the dance (rather than jumping around screaming ‘Woooooooo!!!!!! YEAH!!!!!!!!!! You nailed it!!!!!!’)
Ah, remember the days of Brendan telling Fiona Phillips she was probably “a crap shag”.
None of the current mawkish ‘You have brought such joy to my life, friends forever blah blah blah’ cack.
