Talking about her role as a Dance Captain, Oti says: ‘I am the nice person. To critique someone on something they have worked so hard for is very difficult.
‘I never want to be the judge who says, “you’re not good enough” but, I will have to learn because eventually I will have to do it.’
Asked about disappointing really young children on the show, she says, ‘That is the hardest part. I’m always in bits.’

‘I used to be able to slutdrop, but I can’t anymore, I’m at that age. I like Oops Upside Your Head because you get to sit down.

Meanwhile, Strictly bosses are reportedly fearful Oti, who is married to German dancer Marius Lepure, may quit after being left ‘devastated’ by the 3am nightcap saga.
A source told The Sun: ‘Oti is a massive asset for the show. But at the moment she is very unhappy and upset at all the reports and has been left saying “do I really need all this BS?”.
‘She is married and has a lot of respect for Kelvin’s wife and wouldn’t carry on in this way. They are dance partners and friends and that’s it. Some people close to Oti are worried she will just eventually throw her hands up and pack it in.
‘She has a great TV career in her own right on the Greatest Dancer and there would be a queue of producers lining up to work with her.’
