Strictly’s Carlos Gu sobs with pride after judges praise Karen Carney
Strictly's Karen Carney And Carlos Gu in tears after difficult week
Strictly Come Dancing professional Carlos Gu became emotional during Saturday's show, expressing immense pride in his celebrity partner Karen Carney.
The pair performed an American Smooth to "You Don't Own Me", receiving praise from the judges for Carney's significantly improved posture and flexibility.
Gu highlighted Carney's dedication, noting her commitment to trying hard despite her ongoing back issues.
Carney suffers from Scheuermann's disease, a spinal condition that makes it challenging for her to achieve the posture required for ballroom dancing.
Gu said it was amazing to hear the judges praise Carney's efforts, saying, "You have no idea how hard she's been working."
