Has Kevin left the Strictly dance floor for good?
STRICTLY Come Dancing pro Kevin Clifton, pictured, has alarmed his fans after his ‘best bits’ appeared on sister show It Takes Two.
The 36-year-old pro’s long list of celebrity partners were featured in the spin-off, sparking panic among viewers that he may be leaving the show.
It comes as Kevin is riding high in this series thanks to his partnership with broadcaster Stacey Dooley, with the pair wowing in Blackpool over the weekend with a showstopping salsa.
In the video, Kevin also looked back on his partnerships with Susanna Reid (in 2013), Frankie Bridge (2014), Kellie Bright (2015), Louise Redknapp (2016) and Susan Calman (2017).
The dancer noted that among his Strictly highlights were the Blackpool paso doble with Susanna, and the Argentine Tango with Louise which earned them their first tens.
He also touched on making it to the final four times in a row, but is yet to win.
Closing out the segment he said: ‘We all would love to win the glitterball, but at the end of the day, it’s just about bringing entertainment and fun. I’m ridiculously proud to be a part of Strictly. Often I think like “this is my job”. It’s something I’ll be incredibly grateful for.’
Kevin’s words quickly sparked fear among fans that his days on the Strictly dancefloor were numbered.
One added: ‘Uh oh, Kevin’s CV is being shown. Does this mean he’s leaving?’
Of course, Kevin’s time on the show has never been short of heartache, after splitting from wife Karen earlier this year, just three years after the pair tied the knot.
