Ex Strictly Come Dancing pro says star will 'definitely be in bottom two' for one reason

Former Strictly Come Dancing professional Ola Jordan believes she already knows one star who will 'definitely be in bottom two' this weekend. The remaining celebrities are set to take to the floor again on Saturday night for musicals week.

But as the competition heats up, former pro Ola has predicted Gladiator star Montell Douglas will be in the dance-off again on Sunday night. Ola, who danced on the hit BBC show from 2006 to 2015 and is married to fellow ex Strictly pro James Jordan, believes the other competitiors have it 'easier' with their dances for musicals week, which could spell trouble for Montell.

Ola, teaming up with Mecca Bingo, said: “I think Montell doing the Rumba will definitely be in the bottom two again this week. It’s hard to predict now as JB is the only celebrity remaining who has been in the bottom two – the others have never been in the bottom two. But JB might be getting votes now.

“I think it’s going to be between Chris, Pete and JB to be in the bottom two with Montell. Chris, Pete and JB are all doing a Ballroom dance which is in a frame so it’s going to be easier for all of them. It’s going to be quite hard to pick because they will all be good so it will come down to who’s getting the most votes.

“I think Sarah and Tasha will both be safe. Sarah is doing the Charleston which is going to be quite energetic and full-on. Tasha is doing Argentine Tango, which is always a crowd-pleaser, so I think they’ll both avoid the bottom two.”

Pete Wicks is the bookies’ current favourite to leave Strictly Come Dancing this weekend at 3/5. Montell is right behind him with odds of 5/4, and JB Gill in third with odds of 6/1.
