Anton Du Beke excitedly reveals a new career move which he's dedicated to his children - as he moves on from resurfaced historic row amid the Strictly scandal


Anton Du Beke has excitedly revealed a new career move as he attempts to move on from the resurfaced historic row with former Strictly partner Laila Rouass.

'Code Name Foxtrot is dedicated to them, and all the children and families who love sharing a story together - as well as anyone who wants to be whisked away on a great adventure (with a dash of dance magic thrown in for good measure of course!).' He reduced contestant Laila, who is of Indian and Moroccan descent, to tears during the 2009 series when he jokingly told her she 'looked like a P***' after a spray tan, with the comments resurfacing this week. Taking to her Instagram, Laila explained she hadn't want to speak out, but felt she had to after she and her family were hit by online abuse, as well as feeling it would be 'morally reprehensible' to allow speculation about Anton to continue.
