Rachel Stevens to quit Strictly Come Dancing

We might only be four weeks into the new series of Strictly Come Dancing but rumour has it that two of the shows biggest stars are ready to walk out.

Both Rachel Stevens and Bruce Forsyth aren’t enjoying the long hours that they are being forced to do.

A source told the Daily Star: “Bruce is the ultimate professional and doesn’t need to put the hours in that lesser presenters have to. He’s of an age where he needs to be getting as much rest as possible. “He is finding the rehearsals pretty gruelling.”

Rachel is feeling under immense pressure. The source revealed: “The pressure of it all got too much for her this week and she just broke down. “She had to stop training because she just couldn’t cope and ran off in floods of tears.”

Fans of Strictly shouldn’t worry as it is thought that show bosses will do whatever it takes to make Bruce and Rachel stay.

Rachel was hot favourite to win the series before it started but hasn’t been able to score as highly as Cherie yet.
