Janette Manrara took a savage shot at her former Strictly Come Dancing dance partner HRVY on The Weakest Link.
Strictly pro Janette was partnered up with pop star HRVY on Strictly back in 2020, where they made it all the way to the grand final of the BBC show.
Sadly for the pair. they would go on to suffer heartbreak at the final hurdle when they narrowly missed out on the coveted Glitterball trophy to Bill Bailey and Oti Mabuse.
Janette and singer HRVY appeared together on a star-studded Strictly special episode of The Weakest Link, which aired last December.
However, Janette decided to blast HRVY on camera when she joked she blamed him for their Strictly exit.

The hilariously savage moment from the popular quiz show showed Janette vote for her former dance partner as the weakest link at the end of the round.
Host Romesh Ranganathan called out the Cuban dance whizz for voting for her old Strictly pal.
The comedian said: “Janette, you voted for HRVY. You danced with HRVY in the show, didn’t you? Did he step on your toe or something and not apologise?”
The dancer quickly replied: “No, we just didn’t win Strictly because of him.”

The camera panned around to see HRVY’s reaction, which saw his jaw drop before him and Janette burst out laughing.
Romesh added: “Do you know what? To be honest with you, up to this point it’s all been a bit fun, but now you guys are turning on each other.”
Things got worse for HRVY when Corrie star Catherine Tyldesley also voted for him.
When asked for her reasoning, the actress said: “I’m really clutching at straws here, but just because he’s the youngest, he might not have quite as much general knowledge.”

HRVY tried not to laugh as he quipped: “Ageism”.
Romesh added: “To be fair Catherine, I think he’s taking it really well.”
Strictly judge Anton du Beke then remarked: “I liked it when you said it’s a very very difficult decision to make early on with everyone here, turns out – not so difficult after all.”
Janette is married to Strictly pro Aljaž Škorjanec, a marriage she said was made stronger by the BBC dancing show.
She told the Mirror: “The show was a massive part of us staying together and getting married. I’d like to presume we would have got married no matter what because we’re soulmates, but I think Strictly made it so much easier for us to stay together and for our romance to really flourish”
