Jaime Winstone will miss out on Strictly Come Dancing this weekend, as the actress sustained an injury last week.
The BBC confirmed earlier this week that Winstone will sit out of the competition, with the actress saying in a statement: "I am absolutely devastated not to be dancing this weekend due to a torn abdominal muscle.
"I am in considerable pain, and my doctors have advised complete rest to give my body the best possible chance to heal. As frustrating as it is, I have to put my health first and follow their advice to step away from dancing this week."
Jaime is the second celebrity to have received a 'bye week', with Delta Goodrem also forced to miss out on a week of the competition last month.
