Strictly Come Dancing: Tilly Ramsay to miss final after testing positive

Tilly Ramsey

Tilly Ramsay has had to pull out of this weekend's Strictly Come Dancing final.

The chef and presenter posted the news on her Instagram account saying she was in isolation after testing positive for Covid-19.

"So sad to be missing the Strictly final - but sadly have tested positive for Covid so will be watching from my sofa and cheering on the amazing finalists from home on Saturday night - wishing everyone lots of love & good luck," she wrote.

Nineteen-year-old Tilly and her partner Nikita Kuzmin wowed the judges while competing on the show, even getting a perfect score on Musical Week.

In the final show, all of this year's contestants do a group dance together, but sadly both Tilly and Robert Webb who pulled out of the series because of ill health, won't be taking part.

It also follows the news that finalist AJ Odudu has been unable to train because of a foot injury.

She and her partner Kai Widdrington are still hopeful about taking part in this Saturday's show.

AJ is due to compete with EastEnders star Rose Ayling-Ellis and TV chef and former Bake Off winner John Whaite for the glitterball trophy.

The Strictly final is on Saturday at 7pm on 麻豆社 One.
