Angela Scanlon feels her time on Strictly was 'cut a little short'

The 39-year-old TV presenter was axed from the BBC show on Sunday night (26.11.23) after she and her professional partner Carlos Gu lost out to ‘Bad Education’ star Layton Williams and his pro partner Nikita Kuzmin in the dance-off, but Angela would've loved to have stayed in the BBC Latin and ballroom series for longer.

She wrote on Instagram: "Over and out. What a wild ride it’s been, feels like it’s been cut a little short but maybe there’s a bigger plan (sic)”

Angela admitted she found performing on the show to be "hard", but insisted she and Carlos had "a lot more to give" on the dance floor.

She added: "When I signed up to do Strictly I hoped I’d leave the show with a [bum] like Kim Kardashian and a few killer moves for family weddings. What I hadn’t anticipated (and maybe it’s still too early to really feel through the sobs) is how much growth there would really be (not just my glutes). To get out there every week in front of millions with no control, as a recovering perfectionist, was HARD. To pick up every week and go again was HARD. To receive feedback wasn’t always cute. To juggle and keep the show on the road while trying to nail a Paso Doble was HARD.

"But... to dance every week was easy. To feel his belief and faith. To laugh. To pick each other up. To share food and ideas and vulnerability. To stand under the lights with this man’s arm around me, was easy. It feels somewhat premature and we had a lot more to give but to have met a soul that knows mine deeply, a heart that is as open, is an absolutely unexpected gift. I feel like the LUCKIEST @gkx_carlos you are my favourite x (sic)"

Angela has been in tears following her 'Strictly' exit.

She added: "I have so much more to say, and so many more people to thank (!) but right now I’m crying in an Epsom salt bath while eating a cinnamon swirl so you’ll have to wait for Part 2!

Finally, who’s idea was Take That @bbcstrictly ?! It broke us @nancy_xuxi our hype girl, thank you for capturing this x (sic)"
