Disgraced Strictly Come Dancing star Anton Du Beke, has been rowing with his partner Laila Rouass again, just weeks after he called her a ‘p**i.’
The Sun reports that the pair first argued on Saturday. It was a row so fierce that the pair missed their rehearsal slot and a BBC executive had to be called to calm Laila down.
A source said: “She got so upset she ended up in tears in his office.”
Strictly Come Dancing professional, Anon Du Beke, has apologised on live TV for calling his dance partner a ‘paki.’
Appearing on BBC Two’s ‘It Takes Two’, Anton said he felt “stupid, embarrassed and mortified.”
He added:
“I feel embarrassed. It was a stupid thing to do and a stupid thing to say.
Strictly Come Dancing professional Anton du Beke, is said to have called his partner Laila Rouass a “Paki”.
Anton reportedly made the comment, during a training session and was referring to Laila’s recent spray tan. The Footballers Wives actress has a Moroccan father and an Indian mother.
Anton has since apologised saying: “I am not a racist and I do not use racist language. During our rehearsals, Laila and I have exchanged a great deal of banter – entirely in jest – and two weeks ago there was an occasion where this term was used between the two of us.
Anton du Beke thinks that his new partner Laila Rouass may help him get closer to this year’s final of Strictly Come Dancing.
“To be honest with you, if they’d said to me what sort of partner do you want this year, I’d say a fella, because they do so well!” Anton told the TV Times.
“But working with Laila this time is exciting, because she oozes potential.”
Actress Laila Rouass first came to the public’s attention for portraying the Jimmy Choo-obsessed, serial schemer Amber Gates in the TV drama, Footballers’ Wives. She went on to star in Primeval, playing a character far removed from the reprehensible Amber: Sarah Page, a geeky Egyptologist.
