Kym Marsh Defends Graziano Di Prima Amid Misconduct Allegations

Kym Marsh has spoken out in defense of her former Strictly Come Dancing partner Graziano Di Prima, who was recently dismissed from the show amid allegations of physical misconduct towards co-star Zara McDermott. Marsh expressed her surprise at the allegations, stating that her experience with Graziano during their partnership in 2022 was positive and did not reflect the claims being made. Graziano, who denies any intentional wrongdoing, explained that he may have accidentally kicked the floor in frustration during rehearsals but has never intended to harm anyone. He described the allegations as 'vile, false,' asserting that they have severely impacted his life both personally and professionally. The controversy has arisen amidst a broader investigation into the conduct of professional dancers on the show, following earlier claims involving another dancer. As the situation develops, Graziano has taken time away to cope with the ramifications of the scandal.
