Michelle Tsiakkas quits Strictly The Professionals tour following BBC ‘axe’ as statement shared

Dancer Michelle Tsiakkas has pulled out of the Strictly The Professionals tour, just days after it was reported that she’d been ‘axed’ from the BBC dance show.

The Cypriot, 30, joined Strictly in 2022. However, she only had one celebrity partner on the main show in her four seasons there, before being dropped ahead of the 2026 series.
