THE star most likely to have an early exit from Strictly Come Dancing has been revealed by a body language expert.
Loose Women’s Kaye Adams was first to leave the BBC show on Sunday after a tough dance-off with Matt Goss.

Now, TV behaviourist Darren Stanton has revealed the secret signs Ellie Taylor and Johannes Radebe are most likely to be out of the competition sooner rather than later – and the couples he expects to see in the final.
Speaking on behalf of Betfair Casino, Darren said: “It’s clear Ellie works hard and wants to get as far as possible in the competition, however I don’t see a strong enough bond between her and Johannes which other contestants have already shown with their partners – sometimes it’s just down to basic chemistry.
“I’m not saying there’s any particular issues between the couple, but there’s a certain ingredient that needs to be present for a deep rapport, and this is ultimately lacking in their performance.
“Craig especially scored them quite low, so hopefully they can resolve the connection issues they seem to be displaying and win him over.
“I am predicting another potential early exit for Ellie, but again, it all comes down to the public vote on how they perceive her progress.”
Meanwhile Darren believes “united” Molly Rainford and Carlos Gu have the strongest chance of making it to the final.
He said: “Molly and Carlos gave an excellent performance with lots of eye contact.
“They were completely in unison during the performance, while showing a very deep level of communication and rapport with each other.
“This couple have one of the strongest chances of progressing in the competition.
“The judges clearly like Molly and Carlos, which was reflected in their feedback and ultimate scores.”
Other stars whose body language suggests they’ve got a strong chance of going all the way in the competition are Jayde Adams and Ellie Simmonds with their pro dancers Karen Hauer and Nikita Kizmin.
Ellie was moved to tears after her waltz with Nikita on Saturday night.
Darren said: “A truly electric performance from this couple, where a simple dance was turned into something that appeared magical and seamless.
“Their energy spoke volumes and it’s clear Ellie has great affection for Nikita. This was clear from her pupil dilation and how comfortable she felt maintaining prolonged eye contact with him during their routine.
“The two clearly have a strong bond and friendship and Ellie went on to receive some fantastic feedback. I’m sure she is somebody that could potentially be seen in the final.”
He continued: “Jayde and Karen are absolutely explosive together and their connection is one of the strongest in the competition.
“They appear to be partners in crime – exhibiting the bond similar to that you may have with a sister.
“They are also comfortable inside each other’s proximal zones and it’s clear these two hold a deep friendship, which has landed itself beautifully in their dancing.
“If they continue with the same levels of trust and communication, these two should surely make it all the way through to the final – if not to win the entire competition.
“This was also reflected in the very positive comments and scores they received from the judges.”
- Strictly continues on Saturday from 6.30pm.
