Graziano Di Prima's rule for Zara McDermott during Strictly training that left her 'hurting and bleeding' is revealed after the dancer admitted to kicking the star in rehearsals
The professional dancer, 30, was axed from the BBC show last week over reports that he 'hit and kicked' the Love Island star, 27, during last year's series.
When the series was just beginning in September, the reality star spoke to The Sun about her training with Graziano, and revealed she had 'open wounds' on her feet because he only allowed her to wear men's dance shoes. The investigation was triggered by Strictly's bid to clean up the show after fellow dancer Giovanni Pernice was accused of misconduct by his celebrity partner Amanda Abbington (pictured together) After fleeing the UK to go back to his native home in Italy with his wife Giada, a fellow dancer who stars on the Italian version of Strictly, Graziano 'has taken a job on a farm, ploughing fields, living with cows and picking grapes'.
