STRICTLY Come Dancing’s Adam Peaty has suffered a “savage” ankle injury during rehearsals with Katya Jones.
The 27-year-old Olympian is currently training for this Saturday night’s Movie themed show – but details of their song and routine are yet to be revealed.
Still, pro dancer Katya documented the injury on her Instagram Story, muting the video to keep song choice a secret.
As Adam stood with a bandage wrapped around his ankle, Katya zoomed in and out on his legs as she wrote: “Please send a pair of new ankles our way!!”
She added a gif that read “savage”, and two distressed emojis.
Adam has not addressed the injury on his own social media page, and hasn’t posted to his Story since sharing his excitement at kick-starting rehearsals.
It comes after the hunk caused a stir with his and Katya’s routine at the weekend, with viewers distracted by his bottom in his super tight grey trousers.
One fan remarked on Twitter at the time: “The Strictly stylist is on a mission to make @adam_peaty’s trousers tighter every week aren’t they?”
Another added: “Adam deserves a medal for dancing with his trousers up his backside! Must have been so uncomfortable”
The judges scored Adam and Katya 19 points, with most of their feedback being about the athlete’s stiff posture.
However, fans voted them through to the next episode, with Nina Wadia and Neil Jones being the first couple to be sent home after losing the dance-off against Katie McGlynn and Gorka Marquez.
