Shirley Ballas has been accused of ‘hating’ one of the Strictly 2023 contestants by viewers of the show.
The show recently aired its Halloween special and it was Ellie Leach and Vito Coppola who topped the leaderboard this week.
The judges were busy offering their feedback and scores to the celebs and their pro partners, including head judge Shirley. But over the last few weeks, viewers have been left wondering the same thing.

Fans of the show have accused Shirley of ‘hating’ Angela Scanlon as well as Nigel Harman. At the weekend, Shirley gave feedback to Angela and once again, pointed out her breathing. She offered advice on how Angela can sort her breathing as that’s “the only thing” she’s “missing”.
