After 13 weeks the 2021 series of Strictly Come Dancing came to an end on Saturday night.
Strictly Come Dancing fans were left in hysterics during Saturday's final as head judge Shirley Ballas almost took a tumble on live TV. At the start of the episode, Shirley, 61, and the rest of her judges - Craig Revel Horwood, Motsi Mabuse and Anton Du Beke - were all introduced to the stage as they performed a dance to the judging panel.
Strictly Come Dancing fans have said they think Giovanni Pernice is "madly in love" with his dance partner Rose Ayling-Ellis after a sweet moment on Sunday 12 December's show. Professional dancer Giovanni, 31, was spotted giving EastEnders actress Rose, 27, a kiss on the head as they celebrated making it to the final.
Strictly Come Dancing Rose Ayling-Ellis has revealed the damage caused by the 'leap of faith' in the routine last weekend.
