Alex, 35, and her Strictly Come Dancing professional partner Neil Jones, 37, joined It Takes Two host Rylan Clark-Neal, 31, after they found themselves as the unlucky pair making their exit from the BBC dance show last night. It was down to Shirley Ballas, 59, to decide between the sportswoman and comedian Chris Ramsey, 33, with the former being the unlucky celebrity. As the pair discussed their journey, the sports pundit shed a few tears as she reflected on her journey. After they performed a Samba for their quarter-final routine, Alex and Neil found themselves bottom of the leaderboard, just below their dance-off competitors. Following another performance in last night’s results show, the panel were split, leading Shirley to step in and have the final say. Commenting on her decision, the head judge said: “Both couples danced extremely well and for me it’s going to go personal taste.” With Chris still in the running for the crown, the eliminated contestant spoke for the first time since her exit and became quite emotional.

After wiping away the rest of her tears, Alex said: “I actually feel like Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. I feel like Charlie - I won the golden ticket. “I just loved very moment and I said to Neil from day one, it wasn’t about me, it was about our journey because I know how special it was for him in his first year.” Turing to her professional partner, the footballer commented: “Thank you for being amazing and for being patient with me. “It was hard, but he stuck at it. You worked miraculous to even get me that far, so thank you.” Alex was the 11th celebrity to be voted off and speaking in her column for Hello! Magazine, Shirley explained why she chose to send the sports pundit home.
