She was partnered with pro dancer Nikita Kuzmin during Saturday’s launch show.
Dani revealed she had a <a href=”https:///www.uknip.co.<a href=”https:///www.uknip.co.<a href=”https:///www.uknip.co.<a href=”https:///www.uknip.co.Nastynasty fall on Friday and “landed funny.” What she thought was a rolled foot turned out far worse.
“After an MRI scan yesterday, it turns out I have fractured my ankle,” Dani explained. “Apparently doing the quickstep on a fracture is not advisable (!!) and the doctors have said I am not allowed to dance so I’ve had to pull out of the show.”
“To say I’m heartbroken is the biggest understatement. I am so going to miss dancing with Nikita but will of course be watching closely and cheering all the couples on.”
