Posting a statement on the official\u00a0BBC Strictly\u00a0Instagram page,\u00a0La Voix\u00a0expressed her “immense sadness” over being unable to compete this weekend. The statement read: “It is with immense sadness that I have to withdraw from this weekend\u2019s Strictly Come Dancing shows in Blackpool.<\/p>\n

“Due to an injury, I\u2019ve been advised that I\u2019m unable to perform, and my heart truly breaks knowing I won\u2019t be dancing in such an iconic venue. Alja\u017e and I have worked incredibly hard, and we were so excited to share our routine with everyone.”<\/p>\n

She admitted feeling “devastated” at missing out on the world famous ballroom, but insisted she would still be there in spirit, cheering on the rest of the dancers.<\/p>\n

“I am devastated not to be joining the rest of the cast on that famous dancefloor, but my focus now is on recovery. I\u2019ll be cheering on all the amazing couples this weekend.”<\/p>\n

Commenting on the situation, a Strictly spokesperson said: “Due to injury, La Voix has been advised by doctors to rest and, as a result, will not dance in this weekend’s Blackpool specials.<\/p>\n

“In line with the rules of Strictly Come Dancing, La Voix and Alja\u017e will receive a bye through to next week when it is hoped they will be able to dance again. We wish La Voix the very best for a speedy recovery.”<\/p>\n

The announcement left many fans of the hit BBC series bewildered and disappointed as they took to social media to express their frustration.<\/p>\n

One fan wrote: “I hope no one is eliminated. That wouldn’t be fair,” while another suggested a potential workaround, stating: “Perhaps Vicky and Kai could keep up training for a week in case La Voix can’t dance the following week – a sort of reserve in waiting. Certainly don’t really want a 2 couple final.”<\/p>\n

A third user expressed that the situation felt unfair at this stage in the competition, commenting: “Not really fair more than half way into the run. This would be ok in the first 4-5 weeks but this is not fair. #Strictly.”<\/p>\n

While a forth pointed out the advantage the couple has received, writing: “So La Voix essentially gets a free week and stays even longer in the competition. Honestly if someone gets a free week nobody should go home that week, it’s unfair #strictly #strictlycomedancing.”<\/p>\n

However, many users were quick to wish La Voix a speedy recovery, as one said: “I cannot believe La Voix is not going to be in Blackpool! So sad!,” while another penned: “Ahh La Voix, I am gutted. Speedy recovery.”<\/p>\n

This story contains major spoilers from the\u00a0Fire Country<\/em>\u00a0season 4 premiere.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Fire Country<\/em>\u00a0season 4 just premiered on CBS, and fans are reeling from\u00a0the aftermath\u00a0of the tragic fire at the end of season 3.<\/p>\n

As viewers discovered Vince Leone (Billy Burke<\/strong>) heroically died to save his father Walter (Jeff Fahey<\/strong>), they also got to see how his wife Sharon (<\/p>\n

With Vince’s death as the catalyst for a new era on\u00a0Fire Country<\/em>, Diane exclusively sat down with\u00a0Good Housekeeping<\/em>\u00a0to discuss her character’s future, the importance of displaying grief on TV, and why it was so hard to lose her on-screen husband.<\/p>\n

I had survivor’s guilt.<\/strong>\u00a0Billy and I went into the fire [in\u00a0Fire Country<\/em>\u00a0season 3], and our producers didn’t tell us who was coming out. We spent the whole summer, and then it was Billy who told us he was let go. It left me questioning,\u00a0<\/p>\n

It wasn’t hard to tap into grief.<\/p>\n

\n
<\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

<\/strong>\u00a0I was actually eager to do it, because it felt honest for the character and what firefighters have to deal with in real life. We talk about firefighters as heroes, but it is one of those jobs that carries the imminent risk of death. We wouldn’t be doing any favors if we just showed periphery characters losing their lives.<\/p>\n

In television, I don’t think you could portray grief non-stop for a year.<\/strong>\u00a0People spend years in development, trying to do shows about grief. But they could never find the balance of that pain and making it watchable. My biggest fear was,\u00a0<\/p>\n

The showrunner and I went through our own five stages of grief.<\/strong> We wanted to show different stages for Sharon’s healing as the weeks go on. Seeing Sharon cry every week wasn’t something any of us were interested in, but we wanted to see her angry and see her bartering with God.<\/p>\n

\"\"I have two uncles, and they both were firefighters. <\/strong>I showed the showrunner photos of their funerals, and our depiction in\u00a0Fire Country<\/p>\n

\n
<\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

<\/em>\u00a0is pretty much an exact match\u2014down to where the flag is hung and the bagpipes, because I’m Irish.<\/p>\n

From the premiere, it’s clear Sharon and Bode express their grief differently<\/p>\n

\n
<\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

<\/strong>.<\/strong>\u00a0But the grief is also experienced in two different genders and generations. They’re having parallel grief, but they’re not sharing the pain with one another. They’re trying to protect each other, but they don’t have the bandwidth to take care of anyone besides themselves.<\/p>\n

Everybody ends up where they’re supposed to be.<\/strong>\u00a0But losing\u00a0my scene partner in Billy\u2014we built a really strong unit in a show that already has an original wound. And now we’re re-arranging our family, both on and off-screen.<\/p>\n

I hope Vince’s death\u00a0<\/strong>gives people permission to feel\u00a0all<\/em>\u00a0the feelings<\/strong>, because no feeling truly remains. Happiness, when it comes, does not last forever\u2014and neither does sadness. If we can see a character hit their bottom, the experience of seeing them come out of it will give someone the chance to reach the entire depth of their feelings. There’s something really helpful in showing the every man quality of feeling\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
