BBC Strictly Come Dancing fans' devastation as favourite couple predict who will win

Tissues were definitely needed on tonight’s episode of Strictly Spinoff It Takes Two as the latest couple to leave the competition spoke of their time on the show.

Host Fleur East wasn't the only one tearing up as Jamie Borthwick and pro partner Michelle Tsiakkas appeared to debrief on the weekend's results. Although they were both devastated, Jaime said that on Saturday, he felt elegant and was happy to dance the routine twice despite the second time being in the ‘dance off’.

The couple agreed they left on a high. The pair just missed a spot in the quarter final, becoming the 9th couple to leave #Strictly 2024.

Fleur read out comments from viewers who most of them all agreed that the couple were ‘undermarked’ and they should not have been voted out. This comes after it was revealed that Michelle and Jaime scooped five 10s and were top of the leader board several times during the contest.

Jaime says he looks forward to seeing who Michelle gets next year and predicts Miranda’s Sarah Headland and professional dancer Vito Coppola to take the Ballroom trophy.

Viewers took to X to share their disappointment. @coffeequeenemma said: "Jamie is so miffed! #ittakestwo #strictly #itt
