Nadiya Bychkova has said she "always wants to be a part of whatever Strictly is doing" as she faces rumours that she's set to be axed from the show. The dancer is one of several professionals who are supposedly being earmarked to be sacked from the line-up ahead of the upcoming series. The 36-year-old, along with Gorka Marquez , 35, Luba Mushtuk, 36 and Michelle Tsiakkas, 30, are all said to have been cut from the professional dancing line-up as part of a huge shake-up for the programme.
