Strictly Come Dancing has been thrown into chaos in recent weeks following a series of allegations of abuse by professionals.
Below is a full list of claims faced by professionals, compiled by our team at MailOnline:
Amanda left the show last year after claiming that her partner Giovanni was abusive. He later left the show after vehemently denying all allegations.
Amanda, 50, abruptly quit the BBC show citing “personal issues” and has not been seen on screen since, even quitting social media last month in the wake of her former dance partner’s sacking.
Giovanni, 33, has been suspended pending a BBC investigation into allegations made by Amanda and two other celebrity exes.
Fellow Italian dancer Graziano Di Prima was fired from the show earlier this month after being accused of kicking and spitting on Zara McDermott.
Strictly bosses then announced plans to introduce training partners and the appointment of two new wellness producers, following Graziano’s shock sacking from the show.
Love Island star Zara broke her silence on the scandal last week. Di Prima said she “deeply regrets” the incident in an Instagram post.

It’s not just male dancers who are now facing accusations of abusive behavior.
Last week, a celebrity who took part in the show claimed that a Strictly dancer, whose name has not yet been released, shouted in his face and berated him off-camera.
The Daily Mirror reported that the allegations against the well-known actor do not include physical abuse. A source told the paper: “The man in question felt very victimised by his partner’s behaviour on Strictly.”
Steve Backshall complained to the BBC about his Strictly Come Dancing partner Ola Jordan in 2014, claiming she “bullied” him.
The veteran explorer and presenter, now 51 and who has dived with great white sharks and wrestled venomous snakes in his career, lodged a complaint with the broadcaster after struggling in gruelling practice sessions.
MailOnline has contacted an Ola representative for comment.
