Tilly's stumble comes just days after her dance partner Nikita Kuzmin was forced to pull out of the tour after testing positive for  COVID-19.

Posting the news to his social media accounts, Nikita shared an image of himself with Tilly following their Paso Doble alongside some selfies of him holding up positive lateral flow tests. He captioned the snaps: "So sad to be missing a portion of the Strictly Live Tour, but unfortunately I tested positive for COVID-19."

First show on the @strictlycomedancinglive tour and even though I was terrified I absolutely loved every second of it!! Missing @nikita__kuzmin but so grateful to @mr_njonesofficial for dancing with me until he’s back!!"
