Opening up about her partnership with professional dancer, Carlos Gu, she added:

"From day 1 I dreamt of going all the way to the final with @gkx_carlos I thought that if I could be his first partner ever and get him there it would be a memory we would never forget. With all the knockbacks we've had in this competition that dream started to look a lot harder to accomplish. But that song and that Paso doble in particular really showed just how strong as a partnership we have become. Taking the low points, using them as motivation and never giving up."

So glad we were partnered together all those months ago, I couldn't have done any of this without you. This is the final push and I cannot wait. @bbcstrictly I promise to leave my heart out on that dance floor. THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU."
