Strictly Come Dancing has confirmed that Jaime Winstone will miss Saturday’s programme while recovering from an abdominal muscle injury

Doctors have advised the actress to rest, meaning she and professional partner Carlos Gu will receive a bye into next week, provided she is fit to return

Hosts Emma Willis, Josh Widdicombe and Johannes Radebe sent their best wishes during the show

Winstone has already survived three dance-offs

The latest absence comes as the BBC programme faces criticism over its new presenting team and falling ratings, with bosses reportedly considering changes for next series.
