Strictly Come Dancing’s Nadiya Bychkova has shared an update after being hospitalised
Professional dancer Nadiya Bychkova has given an update after being hospitalised during Strictly Come Dancing rehearsals. She had previously disclosed that she fell on her back during a training session this week.
On Tuesday, it was revealed that Nadiya, 35, was rehearsing in London for the new series of the BBC show when she sustained the injury. Yesterday, she informed fans that she’d received “the all-clear” from the hospital and reassured them that she would be returning to the dance floor “soon”.
The professional dancer has now provided another update before resuming rehearsals for the show, which is set to premiere next month.
This follows a Strictly Come Dancing star’s withdrawal from the show as he announces his career plans.
Nadiya took to Instagram tonight to share a message with her followers. She expressed her gratitude for the support she’s received this week and announced in the post that she will be back on the dance floor tomorrow.
She penned: “Hi everyone! I’ve had so many kind messages over the past 48 hours – thank you for your love and support. So many questions too so I just wanted to let you know that I had another scan today – just to check things over – and some more physio from the Strictly team and I’ll be back on that dancefloor tomorrow.”
Nadiya wrapped up by expressing her excitement about the upcoming series. She wrote in her earlier statement: “I feel a lot more like myself today, can’t wait to be back with my [Strictly] family and looking forward for the new series.”
Earlier this week, sources said that Nadiya had sustained an injury whilst rehearsing reports the Mirror. The source revealed: “It looked pretty nasty and no-one was taking any chances. The Strictly crew rushed into action and she was stretchered out.”
An insider close to Strictly commented: “As a precaution, following a fall during rehearsals, Nadiya was taken to hospital for checks and is receiving full support from medical and welfare teams. Rehearsals continue and the Strictly team are in close contact with Nadiya.”
The next day, Nadiya disclosed details about what happened. Posting alongside a photograph of herself in a hospital bed, she shared yesterday: “Well… where do I start? What a 24 hours! Thank you so much for all the messages, love and support.
“I just wanted you to know that I am ok. I had a fall in training yesterday and landed on my back. I was really worried for a while and I was so thankful to the Strictly family and medical team who really looked after me. The staff at the hospital were so kind and caring.”
She continued: “I’m smiling in the picture but it was really scary and there were a few tears as I had to lie still for hours but I was given the all-clear after an x-ray and allowed to go home.”
Nadiya then shared with her fans: “I’ve got some physio today but I will be back on that dance floor soon and I’ll be ready to shine and sparkle in the new series of the biggest show on TV. I can’t wait for you to see it. Keep dancing!”.
