A body language expert previously spotted clues that could point towards Shirley Ballas being the next judge to leave Strictly Come Dancing.
Shirley, 62, has been a judge on the show since Len Goodman left in 2017. In her five years on the panel, she’s quickly established herself as a fan favourite.
Why will Shirley be the next judge to leave Strictly?
However, a body language expert previously spotted clues that could point towards Shirley being the next judge to step down from the show!
UberKinky’s Ruby Payne claimed she’d spotted the tell-tale signs that the Strictly judge is on the way out.
Speaking to Express.co.uk, she said: “If there was anyone I thought could be leaving imminently, it would be judge Shirley Ballas.

“Although she’s been on the show for years now, Shirley has admitted previously that she doesn’t feel quite settled because a big part of her family lives in the US.”
Ruby believes that this could be a “major sign that she could be leaving the show soon”.
What other reasons could there be for Shirley to leave?
Ruby’s comments came after Shirley suffered a health scare. The scare came after a concerned Strictly viewer noticed that the 62-year-old had a lump in her armpit.
She has since had numerous tests to find out what’s wrong.
Speaking to The Sun, the judge said: “My doctor was mortified by my results. I try to take it a day at a time.”
The Strictly star discovered that she had high levels of hormones.
However, Shirley said she wasn’t letting the negatives get her down. She said that she tries not to focus on health worries because “it’s easy for me to go down a dark route”.
“I do tend to worry, so for me, it’s a case of keep busy, keep busy, keep moving,” she said.
Shirley subjected to trolling
The former professional dancer has had a tough time of it on the show recently.
She has admitted that it’s hard to keep a smile on her face due to horrendous online trolling.
As a result her partner Danny has urged her to book three weeks off work.
