Strictly Come Dancing star Dianne Buswell has been forced to speak out following a blunder made by Shirley Ballas on Saturday's show…
November 06, 2022 - 14:46 GMT Nicky Morris Strictly Come Dancing star Dianne Buswell has defended Shirley Ballas after the judge came under fire on social media for mispronouncing the dancer's name during Saturday night's show. The 33-year-old took to Instagram on Sunday to share a statement encouraging viewers to"be kind". She wrote:"Firstly thank you guys so much for all the support on our dance last night.
She continued:"We are all human and doing the best we can. Let's all please be kind to one another and not put each other down. The statement comes after viewers pointed out that Shirley had referred to Dianne as"Diana" when critiquing her and Tyler West's performance on Saturday. The pair earned a score of 29 following their elegant Viennese Waltz to I've Been Loving You Too Long by Seal. This isn't the first time that Shirley has been the target of online abuse during the latest series of the BBC show.
