Dancer Nancy Xu won’t have a celebrity partner on 2025 Strictly Come Dancing, marking her first absence since 2019.
Professional dancer Nancy Xu expressed disappointment at not being paired with a celebrity for the 2025 Strictly Come Dancing series, marking the first time since 2019 she won’t compete with a partner.
Alongside several other pros including Luba Mushtuk, Neil Jones, and Michelle Tsiakkas, Xu will still participate in group routines and remain part of the show’s community.
The changes come amid other disruptions, including Dani Dyer’s withdrawal due to injury and Gorka Márquez’s absence for judging duties abroad.
The season premiered on BBC One with new celebrity-pro pairs, including newcomers Alexis Warr and Julian Caillon, while controversy arose over Thomas Skinner’s pairing with Amy Dowden.
Despite the setbacks, Xu emphasized her ongoing commitment to the show.
