Strictly's head judge Shirley Ballas has addressed reports that Bruno Tonioli will not return for this year's series. The Queen of Latin dance, 59, has spoken out amid fears that her fellow judge may be unable to travel from his home in the US to the UK for Strictly Come Dancing due to travel restrictions from the coronavirus pandemic.
Speaking on Thursday to talkRadio, Shirley said: "They are again rumours, so it will be according to the flights. "If he can get backwards and forwards safely but knowing Bruno and he’s such an amazing man, he will do everything in his power not to let the British public down." Ultimately, it appears to be down to whatever the restrictions on travel are at the time.
