Loose Women's Kaye Adams thought she was 'hated' after 'blowing' Strictly dance off

Kaye Adams said she felt she "blew" her final dance on Strictly Come Dancing.

The 59-year-old presenter returned to the Loose Women panel on Tuesday as her fellow hosts welcomed her and showered her in praise. However, Kaye revealed that she thought people "hated her" after she "blew" the dance off and was ultimately voted off the BBC ballroom show.

Coleen Nolan welcomed Kaye back to the ITV talk show before showing clips of her time on the dance floor, alongside professional partner Kai Widdrington. They went head to head with singer Matt Goss and Nadiya Bychkova as they performed their Charleston to Music! Music! Music! by Dorothy Provine on Sunday night.

After the clips played Coleen hugged her friend as she said: "I was so proud of you". Kaye replied: "I was gutted because I tried my very very best. Sometimes you don't get the outcome in life that you want but that happens."

The disappointed dancer added: "I blew it in the dance off and I own that. I blanked. It was such a long day and I was so exhausted."

Speaking of how being eliminated from the competition made her feel, Kaye said: "You think 'people hate me, people hate me'." Her fellow panellists repeatedly told her how well they thought she did and how proud of her they were, trying to reassure her. Janet Street-Porter said: "Don't beat yourself up for it."

Kaye admitted: "The pressure was too much for me there." She added that she was "too far" out of her comfort zone but admitted that she needs to be less negative about herself.

The Strictly competitor praised professional dancer Kai for always egging her on to do her best. She loved working alongside with him and offered him thanks for making her experience so good.
