Strictly Come Dancing star Will Mellor was left in tears on Saturday as he performed live on the show, despite suffering with illness this week. As Will shared the personal link to his chosen song, viewers were distracted by how poorly he sounded and looked on the live show. The Coronation Street actor had a croaky voice and kept coughing, after he and pro dance partner Nancy Xu took on the Rumba to the track The Joker and The Queen by Ed Sheeran, featuring Taylor Swift.
Before his dance, Will explained about his personal link to his performance - as well as the fact he was not well at all. Will vowed to carry on and do his dance, but concerned viewers believed he should have been at home in bed after hearing him talk. Will barely had a voice as he reacted to the judges' feedback, which was mainly critical of his latest routine.
Partner Nancy, like viewers, referenced the fact that he was unwell so it was huge that he'd even made it to the live show - with fans calling the scores "too harsh". It's when Will went to speak to host Claudia Winkleman though that fans really realised how unwell Will had been, as he sounded like he had a cold, which he said was come sort of virus or bug. Taking to Twitter, viewers urged the show to let him leave then and there for the night, so that he could get to bed.
Of course this isn't likely to be allowed unless he will be made exempt from the dance off, should he find himself in the bottom two. One viewer said: "Poor old Will, he's really struggling tonight. Looks like he should be home in bed.
"Another said: "poor Will. Obviously not well but didn't make an issue of it with the judges and they were very harsh. Well done Will.
