Strictly’s Sara Davies breaks down in tears as she admits she feels ‘lost’ without Aljaz Skorjanec after exit
STRICTLY’S Sara Davies broke down in tears after feeling “lost” without her dance partner Aljaz Skorjanec.
The Dragons’ Den star was booted out of the competition on Sunday night after a dance-off with Tilly Ramsay.
And in her exit interview with Rylan on It Takes Two, the 37-year-old started to cry as she reflected on life without Strictly.
Sara said: “Do you know, I woke up this morning and I was just lost. I was just…
“We usually have our little routine. The alarm goes off at 5am, check my Instagram Stories, and he’s put a little post on: ‘Oh, he’s woke up!’
“And then we meet at our own little studio, with our own set of keys, and I’d let us in, you [Aljaž], go and make us the coffees.
“I turn the glitterball on, even though we really didn’t need a glitterball at 6am in the morning!
“But it just got us in the mood and it was just, those first few hours in the morning before the VT team turns up, it would just be us.
“We’d have this like intense learning, it was just a little bubble.”

On Saturday night Aljaz sparked concern he was handing in his resignation as he appeared to suggest he would “miss” working on the show.
He gushed: “I’m going to miss you so much, I’ll miss dancing with you. I’m going to miss everything about this show.”
Aljaz has been in the show since 2013 when he won his first series alongside Abbey Clancy.
Over the weekend The Sun On Sunday told how Oti Mabuse and Aljaz have both told pals they plan to quit the hit show next year.
The pro dancers will hand in their notices after this series for projects away from the ballroom, sources say.
It comes after his wife Janette Manrara stepped down as a professional to host the spin-off show It Takes Two.
The star was very emotional and was seen wiping away a tear as Sara praised him before their final dance.
Speaking with host Tess Daly after being voted off, she said: “I had no idea any of this was in me.
“It’s been a life-changing experience and one I’ve loved every second of.”
She added: “He’s one in a million. He knows it, I tell him every day.
“This wouldn’t have been the experience it was unless it had been with you.”
