The first celebrity contestant was booted off Strictly Come Dancing last night and it’s safe to say they’re not happy about it.
Last night, we saw singer Lee Ryan and fashion journalist Susannah Constantine compete in the dreaded dance-off. Both couples gave it their all, but the judges chose to eliminate Susannah and her professional partner Anton.
The presenter was bottom of the leader board so her exit didn’t come as a surprise to many viewers, but rumour has it the fashionista was not impressed by her early departure.
A source told The Sun: “She was obviously furious.”
“She seemed to hate every minute of it. She ignored the other dancers and didn’t talk to the judges and seemed to think she was above everyone else.”
Susannah’s exit comes after an online petition was set up to have her removed from the show. Viewers believed she didn’t deserve to take part in the dance contest due to her support of hunting.
The petition read: “Susannah Constantine of Trinny and Susannah is currently participating in the BBC show Strictly Come Dancing even after it has been reported that she is involved in the disgusting ‘sport’ of hunting.”
They continued: “Not only is she involved, but her 10-year-old daughter also kills animals for sport.”

“The BBC should not be rewarding this cruel activity with a primetime show and financial gain,” they added.
Were you happy to see Susannah and Anton waltz away from the Strictly dance floor? Or did they deserve to stay?
