Kym Marsh concerns BBC Strictly Come Dancing fans as she returns from illness

Strictly Come Dancing viewers have been left concerned after Kym Marsh returned to the show following a period of illness. After being diagnosed with coronavirus, the former Coronation Street star missed last week's show.

Kym recently returned to the stage for Musicals Week with her partner Graziano Di Prima. She revealed she had previously been watching the BBC show from home with "two tissues shoved in her nostrils".

But despite the judges praising her for her quarter final Cha Cha routine to Fame from Fame, viewers at home were concerned that she was still not very well at all, Birmingham Mail reports. They took to Twitter to comment on how "tired" the star looked.

Martin de Wied said: "#Strictly Kym looked tired." Uzoamaka wrote: "Maybe still recovering. As Kym looked like she was holding back not giving her full energy."

Dan asked: "Did Kym walk most of that or dance it??? #Strictly." Ian D Hodgetts echoed: "Is Kym dancing in slow motion?"

Effy wrote: "I feel like Kym is moving rather slowly and all these other pros around her are emphasising the fact."

Others praised her for her commitment. Sara commented: "Fair play to Kym Marsh for doing this dance. The week after I had Covid I could hardly get up the stairs."

Susannah added: "Good on you, Kym. Fab! I could barely walk to the bathroom a week after Covid, never mind put on a performance like that! #Strictly."
