Irish singer Daniel O’Donnell has been kicked out of Strictly Come Dancing.
Daniel and professional partner Kristina Rihanoff were both eliminated after they ended up in the dance-off against Kirsty Gallacher and Brendan Cole, after judges scores were combined with viewers votes.
Unfortunately the judges all voted to save Kirsty, but Daniel bowed out respectfully, saying:
“What I have given [to the show], I have received tenfold,” he said. “I want to say thank you to all the people who voted.”
Meanwhile fans online haven’t been too happy about the news:
