It comes after Tom shared his frustration at not being able to take part in Saturday's show after both he and Amy tested positive for COVID-19.

The couple were forced to isolate after their Strictly debut

"Today is a tough day," he said in a video shared on his Instagram Stories. "It's Strictly day, I'm going to watching tonight, cheering everyone on. Desperately, desperately wishing I was there dancing."

The 33-year-old added: "I know how hard everyone has been working and I'll be screaming and cheering everyone on."

Tom and Amy might not have taken part in Saturday's show - but that didn't stop his five-year-old son Buddy from getting involved.

Mum Giovanna Fletcher shared a photo of the youngster sitting cross-legged in a small chair, with legs crossed at the knee, as he held a notebook in one hand and a pen in the other.

She captioned the adorable image: "Watch out @craigrevel @motsimabuse @shirleyballas @mrantondubeke - there's a new judge in town - and he's TOUGH!!! @bbcstrictly."
