A third Strictly professional dancer has reportedly refused to take the Covid vaccine, which is said to have created an atmosphere of fear and worry.
It was initially alleged that two dancers had refused the jab ahead of the launch on Saturday evening, which left some celebrities cautious about being paired with them.
And according to The Sun, there is now heightened "resentment" among the stars and crew upon learning that yet another dancer is reportedly unvaccinated against the virus. "Producers are dreading an outbreak of Covid on the new series, which is a crucial part of the autumn schedule," a source told the publication.
