Anneka Rice and Kevin Clifton are feeling "bereft" after their ‘Strictly Come Dancing’ exit.
The 61-year-old star and her professional partner became the second pairing of the series to leave the BBC One Latin and ballroom show over the weekend, and now they have taken to social media to reveal their disappointment at being voted off so early into the competition.
Anneka tweeted: "Aw… we’re feeling a bit bereft. (sic)"
She also shared a clip of the pair backstage before their appearance on spin-off show ‘It Takes Two’, and said they would be performing the Paso Doble from Kevin’s house this weekend because they wouldn’t get to do the routine live on air.
As Kevin joked about a live stream, Anneka laughed: "Have you just felt sad today? We’d have done the Paso Doble… It’s so sad. We’re going to be positive though!
"We’re going to carry on dancing and we’re gonna do the Paso Doble. We’re gonna do rehearsal in my sitting room on Friday, and then the full fantastic version in Kev’s house on Saturday."
During their appearance on ‘It Takes Two’ on Monday (07.10.19), Anneka also slammed the song she and Kevin had to dance to, ‘Woo Hoo’ by the 5. 6. 7. 8’s.
She said: "Well to be honest that song, I never want to hear it again. All the other songs in movie week made your heart soar.
"I’m not surprised people couldn’t vote for that. It did our head in in rehearsals."
Kevin insisted: "It’s like listening to an alarm clock 24/7."
Anneka agreed, adding: "Sometimes it was like being in the middle of a roadworks."
