Vito Copola's Injury
Strictly Come Dancing star Vito Copola has been replaced on the show's live tour after suffering a painful injury. He was set to perform with his celebrity partner Sarah Hadland in Birmingham this Friday when the tour was scheduled to kick off. Unfortunately, Vito, the 32-year-old Italian pro, will no longer be part of the starting line-up due to a back injury.
Vito's Update and Replacement
Vito shared on This Morning that he will miss the first three shows of the tour and will be replaced by Nikita. Despite being able to move and walk, Vito explained that the nature of dancing requires sharp twists of the body, making it necessary for him to take a break. However, he reassured viewers that he plans to return to the stage when the tour reaches Sheffield on January 21.
Exciting Prospects for the Strictly Tour
The Strictly live tour promises to be bigger and better than ever, featuring dazzling group dances, jaw-dropping performances, and plenty of backstage banter. While fans may be disappointed that last year's winners won't be dancing together on the tour, they can catch Chris McCausland in his own stand-up tour starting this month. The tour commences in Birmingham on January 17, with fans eagerly anticipating the performances from their favorite stars.
