A recent Strictly Come Dancing "feud" has come to light after Bobby Brazier seemingly snubbed three of his co-stars just days after the show's final. Bobby, a 20-year-old model who made it to the final of the BBC show, has been actively keeping in touch with some of the 2023 cohort following actress Ellie Leach's Glitterball trophy win.
Fans Speculate on a Bobby Brazier Feud
Strictly Come Dancing fans have noticed a series of social media snubs from Bobby Brazier, leading them to suspect a feud. While Bobby chose to follow several of his fellow show stars on Instagram, he failed to follow Nigel Harman, Les Dennis, and Nikita Kanda. These three co-stars are notably absent from his "following" list, while the rest of the Strictly cast are present.
Rumored Tensions and Unfair Criticism
Throughout the series, viewers were quick to pick up on rumored tensions between Bobby and one of the show's judges. Speculation arose that Bobby was being unfairly criticized and "targeted" by a particular panel member. Craig Revel Horwood was called out by fans, who claimed that he harbored a "strong hatred" for Bobby and the EastEnders actor. During a tense dance-off before the final, Craig chose to send Bobby home, but the other three judges saved him. This led to accusations that Craig consistently undermarked Bobby's performances, often giving lower scores compared to the other judges: Shirley Ballas, Motsi Mabuse, and Anton Du Beke.
Fans Take to Social Media to Highlight the "Feud"
On social media, fans have voiced their opinions about the alleged feud. One fan wrote, "I can respect Craig's choice to save Annabel, but for me, it was obvious for weeks that he doesn't like Bobby, so he wasn't going to save him." However, one person Bobby would never snub online is his professional partner Dianne, as he is quick to comment on her latest sun-soaked snap.
As the Strictly 2023 cast appeared to be friendly throughout the series, the reasons behind Bobby's social media snubs remain a mystery.
