Strictly Come Dancing star Angela Scanlon was forced to apologise last year after being reported to the police for her behaviour after rehearsals for the show.
The One Show host found herself under fire after posting a hastily-deleted video to her Instagram account.
The video showed Angela engaging in some dangerous behaviour while with friends. Although the video was quickly deleted, the damage has been done it seems.
“I made absolutely the wrong decision,” Angela said, as the fallout began.
Angela Scanlon reported to police after rehearsals
The Strictly star was apparently reported to the police after she was filmed dancing out the window of a moving car. Angela was sitting in the backseat of a vehicle without wearing a seatbelt.
She leaned her body out of the rear window and was captured by a friend in the passenger seat in front. Angela performed the dangerous routine while laughing, as the car travelled at speed.
She uploaded this video to her Instagram account, before hastily deleting it later. However, the video was obtained by MailOnline.
Strictly star apologises for lapse in judgement
Angela released an apology for her behaviour following the incident. “I made absolutely the wrong decision when I filmed this video. I was coming from rehearsals and was giddy with excitement,” she said.
She continued: “That’s not an excuse, because what I did was stupid and I’m sorry I let my excitement get the better of my judgement.”
I made absolutely the wrong decision when I filmed this video. I was coming from rehearsals and was giddy with excitement.
A member of the public who allegedly reported the star to Hertfordshire Police, told The Sun: “I was rooting for Angela Scanlon to lift the Strictly glitter ball until I watched this video. No seatbelt, no concern for her safety or other road users, it was reckless.”
Ellie Leach and Vito Coppola went on to win the 2023 series.
Angela presents Your Home Made Perfect tonight (July 2) on BBC Two at 8pm.
