Strictly’s Katya Jones ‘forced to miss training due to neck injury’

Another dancer down!

They seem to be falling like flies on this year’s series of Strictly Come Dancing.

First, Neil Jones and Paralympian Will Bayley missed last week’s Halloween special due to injury.

Now reports suggest that Neil’s ex Katya has been forced to sit out training because of a neck injury.

The Sun reports that Katya, 30, did not train yesterday (29.10.19).

Katya and her partner Mike Bushell survived a tense dance-off after finishing in the bottom two at the weekend.

Missing a whole day’s practice will not help their cause.

ED! contacted a Strictly rep for comment.

Katya’s injury isn’t the first to blight the series.

Her ex-husband Neil was forced to miss the Halloween special due to injury.

And fellow pro Kevin Clifton stepped in to dance with Alex Scott.

Paralympian Will Bayley was also forced to miss last week’s spectacular after injuring his knee during rehearsals.

It’s claimed that Will, 31, is on his way to see a specialist to receive advice on whether he’ll be able to continue for the rest of the series.

At the very start of the series, Made In Chelsea’s Jamie Laing was injured in the build-up.
