Amber Davies playfully expressed her thoughts to fans following the broadcast of the Strictly Come Dancing Christmas special. The former Love Island champion, aged 29, shared a humorous video on TikTok showing her exaggerated reaction while watching the show at home.
In the video, Amber comically clawed at the TV screen as the judges awarded high scores to the celebrity dancers. She captioned the clip with a light-hearted comment, joking about how it took her ten weeks of hard work to earn similar scores.
Clarifying that her post was meant in jest, Amber emphasized her fondness for the Christmas special and congratulated Scarlett Moffatt and Vito Coppola in capital letters.
Fans found humor in her post, with one commenting that it was the only acceptable reaction while another praised her performance and felt she deserved even higher scores.
Some viewers noted that the judges tend to be more lenient during the festive episode, acknowledging the relaxed atmosphere of the Christmas show and praising Amber for her fabulous performance.
Despite her background in musical theatre, Amber revealed the physical challenges she faced during Strictly, recalling a risky move involving a salsa routine that she and her partner, Nikita Kuzmin, decided to abandon for safety reasons.
As the competition progressed, Amber also opened up about the emotional toll it took on her, expressing sadness as the show neared its end and sharing her deep appreciation for the experience within the Strictly “bubble.”
While facing criticism for her prior dance experience, Amber has remained positive about the support she received from viewers. She extended gratitude to her fans after reaching the final, describing their kindness as unparalleled in her nearly ten years in the public eye.
Amber also showed support for her fellow contestants, including semi-finalist Balvinder, and voiced her backing for finalists George Clarke and Karen Carney.
