After her daughter reported online that she was performing with an injury and that she was “so proud,” Strictly star Alex Kingston has received a flurry of well-wishes from fans.
Another Strictly Come Dancing star has suffered an injury during the 2025 series, as Alex Kingston’s place in the show has been threatened due to a rib injury. Alex, who is paired with professional Johannes Radebe, performed a Couple’s Choice routine on Saturday and her daughter pointed out online that she was performing with an injury, and said she was ‘so proud’ of her mum.
A short clip of their choreography, which scooped 35 points from the judges, was uploaded to Strictly’s Instagram page before her daughter Salome Violetta Haertel wrote: “So so proud!!! Slayed the dance floor, dislocated rib and all!!!”
Fans eluded Alex, who has finished last on the Strictly leaderboard, to express their gratitude. You already knew that your mother is a superstar; if you can, send her my love and healing thoughts. I sincerely hope it doesn’t prevent her from continuing because “she receives my votes every week”!

“Sending your mother our love,” is a second poem. What amazing woman, overcoming pain in that way! We adore our Queenston,” according to one third commentator, “She did amazingly with an injury!” Hope she recovers enough to keep going.
After being informed that Strictly star La Voix would be quitting the series after an incident, Alex was the third person to suffer an injury, and Neighbours star Stefan Dennis was forced to do so after a calf injury.
As you may have heard, La Voix has an injury that has prevented her from dancing in Blackpool, and we have received a letter from our team advising her to do so.
Claudia Winkleman, co-host, stated, “We will be speaking to La Voix on tomorrow night’s show, we love you so, so much.” Additionally, it’s been confirmed that there won’t be a dance-off this weekend, that no celebrities will be invited home, and that all votes from tonight will be moved on to the following week.
Taking to Instagram, La Voix said: “I’m absolutely devastated to be withdrawing from Strictly Come Dancing. This isn’t the glittering exit I ever imagined, and it breaks my heart to feel like I’m letting people down. My spirit wanted to keep dancing, but my foot has other ideas! Thank you for every cheer, every vote, and every sparkle of support – it’s meant the world to me. This isn’t the ending I imagined, but I’ll cherish this forever.”
This season has been filled with celeb injuries as, before the show even began, Dani Dyer had to pull out after suffering an nkle injury in training.
Tonight, the iconic Blackpool dance floor will be re-occupied by four Strictly finalists as part of a special reunion performance.
Ashley Roberts, Danny Mac, Jay McGuiness and Layton Williams will step back into the legendary Blackpool Tower Ballroom to dance with some of the BBC series’ professionals in what viewers are promised will be a “dazzling performance”.
