Debbie McGee looks like she is having a wonderful time on Strictly Come Dancing (and could possibly win the whole thing), but unfortunately all this training could be taking its toll.
Ahead of the famous Blackpool weekend, the star has had to deal with a nasty injury.
Speaking to The Mirror, Debbie's sister Donna said: 'She's twisted a muscle so she's struggling.
'It's a real shame. She has been suffering – she had a hot water bottle on her back all week. It's really been playing up.'
We have reached out for comment from Strictly to find out if there's a possibility that Debbie could miss out on performing at Blackpool, but we've got a feeling it will take more than a pulled muscle to stop her.
For Debbie, the show isn't just a competition, but a chance to deal with the loss of her husband Paul Daniels, who sadly passed away last year.
'This is the first time since I lost Paul that I feel genuinely happy,' she said. 'I am always giggling and having a good time.
'Before, there was always this knot in my stomach but the last three weeks on Strictly have been amazing. Everyone is so lovely. They make you feel so good and wanted. They make you feel like they really want you on the programme.'
Strictly Come Dancing continues this Saturday (November 18) on BBC One at 6.45pm.
