Strictly Come Dancing’s Luba Mushtuk has thrilled fans with some ‘exciting’ news she shared alongside her co-star. Both were part of the latest series of the BBC One dance contest.
Luba faced early hurdles in the 2024 run of Strictly Come Dancing when her celebrity partner Nick Knowles was hit by a non-dance related shoulder injury. He later sustained a knee injury, but was allowed to perform at the last minute.
However, he and Luba were eliminated that same weekend after landing in the dance-off. Meanwhile, Karen and her celebrity partner, ex-footballer Paul Merson, made it to week five where they scored only 19 points from the judges for their samba to Car Wash by R&B group Rose Royce.
Speaking about her partner at the time of their exit, Karen told host Tess Daly: “You’ve been a joy. I’ve never giggled this much. My abs are really tight now. I am so proud of you.”
