Earlier this week, Karen - who was partnered up with Greg Wise in this year's series - confirmed she injured her knee. "So currently I have two things wrong with my knee. There's a little bit of a tear on my meniscus and then there's also a little cartilage flap behind my knee but they're very minor so instead of an op I got a knee injection so that’s good news."

Her boyfriend Jordan Jones has been on hand to help with her recovery by placing her legs in compression boots. News of Karen's injury comes shortly after fans are waiting to hear whether AJ Odudu will be fit enough to compete in the final alongside John Whaite and Rose Ayling-Ellis.
Meanwhile, former contestant Tilly Ramsay revealed she will not be returning to the final due to testing positive for coronavirus while Robert Webb has also "politely declined" the offer to return for one last dance. He had to withdraw from the dance competition just a few weeks in because of ill health.
