She paid a special tribute to her dance partner Graziano who had become like ‘family’.
She said: “He was so good in the dance-off, the best partner to have. “He kept telling me to ‘focus, focus’ because I tend to zone out.
“I said ‘well if this is our last dance, we’ve got to go out with a bang.’ “
Graz was also in tears and Kym his ‘best friend.’
The dancer, who has become a hit with fans, said this was his ‘best series yet.’
Meanwhile Strictly Come Dancing fans all said the same thing after Shirley Ballas sent Kym home.
