Strictly's Thomas Skinner Faces Online Abuse After VP Meeting
Thomas Skinner, contestant on Strictly Come Dancing 2025, is facing a storm of online abuse and death threats. Despite the backlash, he feels supported by his co-stars, including professional dance partner Amy Dowden.
The controversy began after Skinner met Vice President JD Vance, with whom he bonded over political views online. Since then, he has faced daily attacks from both the left and right on social media. Fans, however, are rallying around him, suspecting that show bosses are trying to eliminate him by giving him a Latin dance for the second week.
Skinner's Paso Doble dance received mixed reviews from judges, placing him third from the bottom of the leaderboard. Despite this, he and Amy Dowden are excited to perform their dance this week. Strictly bosses deny that giving Skinner a Latin dance is a disadvantage.
Skinner's popularity among his Strictly co-stars, who are protective of him, is a silver lining amidst the online storm. Fans continue to support him, hoping that the show's bosses are not unfairly targeting him.
