Strictly Come Dancing star Kaye Adams has defended Shirley Ballas after the head judge was accused of favouring younger male contestants.
Kaye, who described Shirley as a “vibrant and outgoing woman”, said she experienced ageism during her time on the show, which ended after two weeks.
"I've never ever thought of myself as being on the wrong side of ageism or sexism – I've never approached life that way,” she said, “But I am becoming more aware of a negative attitude towards older women. I'd never felt affected by it before." “I read a comment from someone saying old-aged women can't move, they're so unfit, they're slow. I thought 'Jesus Christ what more do you want?’”
