Strictly Come Dancing pro drops huge hint they’ve had last-ever show

Strictly Come Dancing fans have been speculating about Jowita Przystał’s future on the show after a cryptic Instagram post appeared to hint at a possible exit. The professional dancer sparked concern by sharing an Instagram Story with Ross King, a showbiz reporter and Lorraine star, her celebrity partner for the 2025 series. Posing in a pink strappy top with her hair styled in a sleek bun, Jowita smiled for the camera, tagged Ross, and wrote: “Last dance partner on the Strictly floor x.” The wording quickly caught viewers’ attention, with some questioning whether the message suggested the 31-year-old was preparing to step away from the BBC dance competition altogether.

Unable to comment directly on the post, which wasn’t shared to Jowita’s main Instagram grid, fans instead took to Reddit to dissect the phrasing.

“Jowita just shared this! Is this her last year?” one user asked, as others echoed similar concerns.

However, many were keen to play down the speculation, pointing out that English isn’t Jowita’s first language and suggesting the caption was more likely referring to her final dance with Ross rather than a permanent goodbye.

“I think it’s just the way she phrased it and that she means ‘last dance with Ross’,” one fan wrote, while another added: “It would be such a strange way to announce leaving the show."

The post came as the 2025 series drew to a close in emotional fashion, with former Lioness Karen Carney lifting the Glitterball Trophy and longstanding co-hosts Claudia Winkleman and Tess Daly saying their goodbyes after more than a decade fronting the show together.

As the final episode aired, several of the professional dancers shared messages reflecting on the series and thanking fans for their support.

For now, fans remain hopeful that the post was nothing more than a poorly worded farewell to her celebrity partner, rather than a sign that she’s preparing to leave the Strictly dancefloor for good.
