A second agreed, stating: "You two always make me smile! Can't wait for your Cha Cha!" as a third added excitedly: "Omg I'm so excited - one of my favourite singers ever!! So good to see Kym back you are an amazing partnership and I can't wait for tomorrow night."

Kym and Graziano are back performing this week after the Moring Live presenter's bout of COVID-19 prevented them from competing in week nine.

But, after making a recovery, Kym announced that they would be back. Appearing via video link on BBC One's Morning Live earlier this week, which she usually co-hosts alongside Gethin Jones, the actress gave a health update and revealed that she is now testing negative after a "rubbish" week.

Kym and Graziano missed out on week nine

"So obviously at the start of the week I came down with Covid and that wasn't pleasant and certainly wasn't at a good time at all," she explained. "So that was rubbish but thankfully I'm testing negative now but then dad went into hospital during the week and obviously, I've not been able to see him."

She continued: "I managed to see him yesterday because obviously after testing negative I was able to go and see him. He's ok, he's on the mend but it was very scary for a couple of days. It's been a bit of a full plate on our end, let's say."
