Delta Goodrem given Strictly reprieve after rib injury

10/17 @ 7:34pm by Morten Nielsen

Delta Goodrem will miss Saturday’s Strictly Come Dancing after suffering a rib injury during rehearsals

Doctors have advised the Australian singer to rest and sleep upright, with her return to be assessed by medics and producers on Monday

Under the programme’s rules, she has been granted a bye and can dance next week, although another absence would mean leaving the competition

Hosts Emma Willis and Johannes Radebe sent their support, while Delta’s partner Kai Widdrington is set to perform with returning professional Amy Dowden this weekend.
