Strictly Come Dancing pro Nadiya Bychkova has been taken to hospital after being ‘stretchered out’ of BBC rehearsals.
The star was training in north London yesterday afternoon (August 12) when she was left in agony after injuring herself.
An insider told The Mirror: “It looked pretty nasty and no-one was taking any chances. The Strictly crew rushed into action and she was stretchered out.”
A source close to the BBC show said: “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.”

Born and raised in the UK, George began experimenting with video content as a teenager, quickly discovering the power of humour and honesty to connect with people around the world.
He also co-hosts The Useless Hotline Podcast, which has proven so popular it has led to a series of live shows across the UK.
On joining the show, George Clarke commented: “Never thought I’d say this… but I’m doing Strictly! Honestly, I’ve got no idea what I’m doing but I’m excited to get stuck in … and potentially fall over a fair bit.”
