Strictly's Kristina Rihanoff weighs in on 'distressing' misconduct probes as she questions the vetting process and teaching experience of current pro dancers
The Russian dancer, 46, who starred on Strictly from 2009 until 2015, shared her thoughts on the sacking of Graziano Di Prima and probe into Giovanni Pernice.
Kristina - who is engaged to her former celebrity partner Ben Cohen - then returned to America and filed huge amounts of paperwork detailing her certification regarding various dance styles, as well as teaching qualifications and character profiles. After months of being bombarded with calls from agents begging for their clients to be given a place in the Saturday night favourite, Stefania Aleksander, the show's long-serving booker, has usually signed up at least six or seven celebrities, whose names inevitably find their way into the public domain. The show, according to inside sources, is in 'meltdown' and the upper echelons of both Strictly and the wider BBC have been locked in meetings over the weekend as they attempt to work out how they can survive the scandal.
