Strictly Come Dancing bosses have revealed that Ali Bastian will dance on tonight’s semi final despite a recent foot injury.

Sources had earlier claimed that Laila Rouass and Anton Du Beke were preparing to replace Ali and Brian, as her foot injury refused to heal.

However today a BBC spokesman told The Sun: “Laila and Anton are continuing to train in case any of the couples are unable to perform in the live show.

“Ali is fine. She has danced two dances since she injured her foot. It would have to be a massive injury for Laila and Anton to step in.”
