Anton Du Beke, a judge on Strictly Come Dancing, has been implicated in a misconduct probe following resurfaced allegations of racist remarks made during the 2009 series. His former dance partner, Laila Rouass, who has Indian and Moroccan heritage, reported that Anton reduced her to tears by saying she 'looked like a P***' after a spray tan. Anton apologized at the time, stating his comments were made in jest and not intended to be racist. The scandal has intensified scrutiny on the BBC, which is also dealing with allegations against other professional dancers, including Giovanni Pernice and Graziano Di Prima, for off-camera misconduct. These ongoing issues have prompted the BBC to conduct an internal investigation. The situation has led to significant public and media backlash, putting additional pressure on the show's management.
