Peter Andre eliminated from Strictly


Peter Andre has been eliminated from ‘Strictly Come Dancing’.

The former popstar and his professional partner Janette Manrara took part in the dance-off against ‘EastEnders’ Kellie Bright and dancer Kevin Clifton on Sunday’s (29.11.15) results show but failed to make it through to next week’s quarter finals.

Peter and Janette placed last on Saturday’s (28.11.15) show, earning 31 points for their American Smooth and coming last in the Quickstepathon, bringing their total to just 32.

Kellie and Kevin scored 34 points for their energetic Salsa before finishing in sixth place in the Quickstepathon, leaving them with a score of 36.

However, they proved victorious in the dance-off, with the judges opting to save them.

Il Divo also performed on the results show.

Meanwhile, Peter’s former wife Katie Price recently confessed she has been watching him on ‘Strictly’ and was even backing him to win, despite having split from him on bad terms in 2009.

Katie said: "We do watch that [‘Strictly’]. Before ‘X Factor’. We record both. I always thought he’d [Peter] win. He’s a really good dancer."

Katie and Peter’s kids Junior, 10, and Princess, eight, have been watching their dad compete on the show too.

She told ITV’s ‘Good Morning Britain’: "Princess wasn’t bothered but Junior is as he’s more the entertainer. He’s [Peter] doing well in it."
