Strictly pro issues stern warning to Harry Aikines-Aryeetey ahead of next live show
He was at the bottom of the leaderboard this weekend…Strictly Come Dancing‘s Harry Aikines-Aryeetey has been warned he needs to “watch out” ahead of the next live show.
The Gladiators star took to the Strictly dance floor last weekend for its epic Halloween night. Along with pro partner Karen Hauer, the pair performed an American smooth to Mystical Magical by Benson Boone.
Unfortunately, for the first time in this series, Harry and Karen found themselves at the bottom of the leaderboard. And now, the athlete has been issued a stern warning.
Strictly star Harry Aikines-Aryeetey at bottom last week
On Saturday night (November 1) the remaining Strictly Come Dancing 2025 cast put on some jaw-dropping routines.
As for Harry and Karen, they danced an American Smooth that bagged a total of 26 points. However, the score wasn’t the highest of the night and, after a mistake, they landed at the bottom of the leaderboard.
Sharing their feedback, the show’s judges pointed out the mistakes that Harry made during the routine.
“I would suggest a softer approach,” said Craig Revel Horwood as Motsi Mabuse said: “We saw the mistake, but keep doing what you guys do.”
Fortunately for the pair, the nation got behind them and voted them through to next week. Instead, Ellie Goldstein and Vito Coppola were sent home.
Harry ‘needs to watch out’
But now, a former pro dancer has issued a warning to Harry, as he “need to watch out”.
Speaking exclusively to our sister site Entertainment Daily on behalf of Mecca Bingo, Ola – who appeared on Strictly from 2006 to 2015 – revealed who she thinks is in danger of going next.
“Balvinder [Sopal]. I still think Balvinder – even though she did a really good rumba,” the dancer candidly said.
However, Ola noted that Harry could also be at risk. She shared: “But if Harry gets lower scores than her next week and ends up in the bottom two with her, then the judges will save Balvinder again.”
She then went on to warn Harry: “So they’ve got to watch out. Harry was on the bottom this week, unbelievably, so you never know. It depends on the dance and what suits them.”
