Fans were thrilled to see the other celebrities allowed to rush on stage at the end
After the first public vote of the 20th series the 59-year-old found herself up against singer Matt Goss in the dance-off, before the judges chose to send her home.
After finding herself in the bottom two, Kaye performed her routine with partner Kai Widdrington for the second time after Saturday evening’s live show.
Sadly it wasn’t enough to save her, and the judges voted for the Loose Women star to leave.
But this wasn’t the only thing that got viewers talking.

While this one said in reply: “Found this quite emotional actually.”
Another tweeted: “So lovely to see this again!”
Meanwhile, after when asked by host Tess Daly about her time on the show, Kaye said: “It was the right result and I did make mistakes, and when it comes to that high-pressured situation that’s what happens.
“So I am delighted for Matt and Nadiya, the only person I am just sorry for is this wonderful man (Widdrington), who has just been so brilliant…
“It was a hell of a lot of fun, I said my ambition was to learn to love to dance, and actually I have seen a whole new side to myself, it’s opened a little door.
“It’s been a wonderful experience and to spend time with such talented people who love the show so much has been a joy.”
Sunday evening’s results show also saw a performance from singer Robbie Williams who performed his hit She’s The One.
