Strictly Come Dancing's Jamie Laing will not be taking part in the 2019 series after injuring his foot in training.
The Sun reports that the Made In Chelsea veteran hurt his foot after landing awkwardly during the recording for the opening show, due to air this Saturday on BBC One.
The 30-year-old said he was 'devastated' with the news.
He was spotted on crutches and with a boot on his injured foot last weekend while out and about with girlfriend Sophie Habboo.
Jamie said: "I’m absolutely devastated that I’m unable to continue in the competition, I was so excited to hit the dance floor. I would like to wish the lovely couples all the very best and hope they enjoy their time on the show to the fullest.”
The BBC added in a statement: "Sadly, due to an injury, Jamie Laing will no longer be able to take part in this year’s series of Strictly Come Dancing. As the Strictly launch show is pre-recorded, Jamie will still feature in this programme which airs Saturday September 7."
