    Producers had assumed she would stay on the programme as she sounded so good.
    But after leaving the show, Dionne admitted: “They said I’d be here for this many weeks, and I said, ‘No I’m not. I can’t disguise my voice. The minute I open my mouth, I’m gone!’
    “I have never been able to disguise my voice.
    “That’s been my blessing and I never want to disguise it.
    “So, the minute I opened my mouth, everybody sussed it out.”
    Dionne also revealed that despite being based in US soul, she has worked and lived in the UK so much over the years that the British were just as likely to know it was her as people in the States.
    She said: “It’s at a point now where a lot of people thought I lived here.

    She was also rumoured to be feuding with Gio.

    “It seemed unfair that Nigel was invited back and she wasn’t.

    She shared a post from a Strictly viewer and fan on her Instagram stories which read: “I was truly distraught with her sudden departure from the show.”
    Amanda added her own caption, replying: “Thank you angel.
    “So was I.”

    It said: “Amanda Abbington is unable to continue in Strictly Come Dancing and has decided to withdraw from the competition.
    “The show wishes her all the best for the future.”

    “I was given the same lessons over and over again. I can’t describe the heaviness upon my shoulders, the tears, the weight.”
    Victoria finished by vowing to ‘step into her truth’ from now on, adding: “I can’t go and change the past but I can go forward and be the creator of my moment.”
