STRICTLY viewers are convinced there is a ballroom 'feud' and claim Shirley Ballas 'hates' a show favourite.
The 63-year-old diverged from the popular opinion, and the votes of the other judges, by choosing to eliminate the contestant who was least expected to leave Strictly.
Last night, Layton Williams, 29, and Angela Scanlon, 39, had a dance-off after they both landed in the bottom following the judges’ scores and a public vote.
Angela and her dance partner, Carlos, were sent home as the judges voted three to one in favor of saving Layton and Nikita.
Shirley was the sole judge choosing to support Angela and Carlos.
One fan took to X/Twitter and wrote: "Shirley's vote would have been for Angela & Carlos, her dance was wonderful In my opinion, but I think Layton was just a bit better."

Another fan added: "Shirley wanting to save Angela over Layton???"
A third fan penned: "Layton is wonderful and Shirley hates him and we all know why but neither he or Angela should have been in the bottom two."
A fourth fan wrote: "Don't get me wrong I love Angela & Carlos but there's no way she was better than Layton. How can Shirley say she would've saved Angela when she made a mistake??"
A fifth fan echoed: "Shirley! What is her bloody issue with Layton?? Like be real why would u not have saved the better dancer and dance (I love Angela btw).
