A champion Latin dancer, Michele Tsiakkas and Jamie Borthwick danced together in last year’s Strictly Come Dancing, but she is “gutted” not to have a celebrity match.
Strictly Come Dancing’s Michelle Tsiakkas says she is “gutted” not receive a partner on this year’s series.
The 30-year-old dancer worked with EastEnders’ Jamie Borthwick last year and said she felt it was the first time fans got to really know her. However, she has failed to get a celebrity partner this time and is disappointed.
Speaking in a video she posted to her Instagram account, Michelle said: “Hi everyone, I hope you’re all well. I just wanted to make this post to acknowledge and say thank you from the bottom of my heart for all the lovely messages I’ve received since you’ve all seen that I don’t have a partner on Strictly this year. To those of you asking how I am. I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t gutted, but I think that’s a normal feeling to have.”

Strictly Come Dancing, a Saturday night staple since 2004, returned last weekend and saw the likes of Thomas Skinner, Alex Kingston and George Clarke jive with the professionals. Several pros, though, haven’t been matched with a celebrity. Others include Luba Mushtuk, Michelle Tsiakkas and Neil Jones. Weeks prior, Gorka Márquez had shared that he wouldn’t have a partner.
However, Michelle, a champion Latin dancer, has had time to consider the choice. She continued, “My first year with a partner was my first year, and it made me realize how much I enjoy the process.
The show’s most beautiful and rewarding moments, in my opinion. And I also believe that last year marked your first contact with me personally.
I’ll do my best to post more on here to make up for the lack of time you see on your screens because there is still a lot more of me to discover.
I want to help you get to know me better, and I’ll be revealing more about my life, my interests, my interests, my experiences, my opinions, just so you can see that I won’t completely disappear from the stage this year. “
Michelle, born in Cyprus, first appeared on the BBC television dance show in 2022. At the time, she called it “her dream ever since I was a little girl”.
