I looked up the story and there is no source. The third favourite to win is apparently Lauren! Thus we can conclude the source is almost certainly a certain L. Lavender ringing the chronicle from a phone box in Provence!

It would be helpful if she actually had a partner first. Unless she's going to be the first pro to win whilst on the bench, that would be an interesting twist...

It’s an easy bit of filler content to make up - given that he has a proven track record (one win, a couple of finals, relatively few early exits), has a personal tour that sells well, has a sizeable (and totes legit 😆) social media following, has recently had another BBC show, and is arguably the highest-profile current pro, then on paper he’s going to have the best odds, at least until the pairings are announced.
 
Giovanni fanny fat needs a social media ban, no reason other than he is a pompous twit.
It looks as though nadiya has used a jumpsuit on the girls from Molly mae’s pretty little thing collection off the back of love island way back when in the dance show on. If not it’s a dead ringer, good on her if she has, no need to be splashing hundreds of thousands from the budget on dance dresses. She seems humble, I like her.

Is Janette pregnant, she never said 🙄. Sorry but the constant belly rubbing is really annoying 🤣.
Anyone else think that Amy and her husband are a strange match?

Wait til she has a Disney-themed OTT baby shower, planned by Sara Davies and featured in Ok/Hello…

Amy and Ben remind me of some couples I knew that met in school/first year Uni, perfectly nice but quite blah.

The obsessive Kai fan now seems to be stalking him round the country, going to every single show of him and Nadiya’s tour and turning up at every stage door, often drunk and pawing at him. I know she probably means well but it‘s really uncomfortable and I feel like there would be more backlash if it was a male fan doing this to Nadiya?

I agree, it gives divorced by 40 due to lack of common interest vibes.
I know exactly who you mean, there is a nadiya obsessive who believes they are good friends yet every time she sees her it is because she has spent a fortune on tickets and waited at the stage door😂😂

Bless nadiya, she seems to really try and feed into the friendship thing though whereas I believe kai sees them as pound signs, as he rightly should. They are all very strange individuals these fans.

The meet and greets are a funny old concept, really. How many of Gio’s fans think they are special because he said their name read off a flash card kept in a handy double breasted inside pocket that they paid a fair amount for?

You aren’t their friend, you’re their income.

I don’t get meet and greets, maybe im a little tight but for the price of a ticket with a meet and greet - I would expect a full on Q&A session, with drinks and snacks rather than a 10 min hi and photo. Isn’t it something like an extra £70 for the meet and greet.

I slightly get them more for kids things (even though it’s still money-grabbing) but yeah, I don’t really get paying £100 for a minor celeb to give you a hug, it’s a bit sad.

This girl is going to stage door so not paying beyond her ticket but she is literally there every night, front row, went to Donaheys. He must just grin and bear it thinking of the money 🙈

I don't get why Kai, Giovanni and others indulge these fans. I'd be friendly to an extent but appearing that often is very creepy and I'd let them know it eventually. They're not going to lose their livelihoods over telling a couple of weirdos to go away.

Tbh I think it's a fight between the power of the ego massage and common sense telling you that these people following you everywhere are creeps with nothing better to do.
 
Is she actually following kai and nadiya to meet them at the stage door, without actually attending the show? If so that is so strange I could never be that obsessed with someone i don’t know. I’ve found that a lot of these twitter fans tend to have para social relationships with strictly pros, they really think that they know them on a personal level.

She is going to the show, but I think for me it’s the fact that she is travelling around going to multiple dates in multiple cities in the same week, front row, turning up at stage door every night and filming herself hugging/stroking his arms etc and then posting on her Twitter about how they are ‘married’ etc. I think it started as a joke/appreciation but you are spot on that it has veered heavily into the parasocial.
