Shirley Ballas praises Strictly judges for being ‘concerned about each other’s mental health’

OHMYGOSSIP — Shirley Ballas calls the current ‘Strictly Come Dancing’ judging panel the “Fab Four”, because they are all “really concerned about each other’s mental health”.
The 63-year-old star sits on the panel of the BBC Latin and ballroom show alongside Motsi Mabuse, Anton Du Beke and Craig Revel Horwood, and the quartet all look out for one another.
Speaking on ‘Lorraine’, she said: “She [Motsi] wrote me the most beautiful message the other day, and she said, ‘I’ll always have your back,’ and I said, ‘I’ll always have your back, Motsi.’ 35 years we’ve known each other, as with Anton Du Beke.
“I feel the panel of judges that are there right now, the Fab Four I call them, because each of them are really concerned about the other’s mental health. We’re all there.
“Even Craig, he gave me the most lovely compliment over the weekend. He’s just a doll. Just lovely.”
As well as being on the ‘Strictly’ judging panel this year, Shirley also released her debut cosy crime novel, ‘Murder on the Dancefloor’, which is based on her life.
She recently told Virgin Radio: “There were so many stories I wanted to write. 50-odd years of experience they didn’t want me to put it in my autobiography.
“So I talked to my mum and she said, ‘How about you write them in fiction and then have the readers guess, did I really do that or witness that, or is it fiction?'”
Shirley also recently told how she has “taken steps” to deal with social media trolling.
She told the Daily Mirror newspaper: “I’ve taken steps.
“I’ve been to the Juicy Oasis with Jason Vale for over a week and I have also taken yoga classes with a master called Kenny. He showed me all the things I should do to get my mind in a good place.
“I have also hired Harry, who is 21 and a university maths guru and he’s come on board to sift through all my social media. He’s been taking over my platform pretty much along with my son. If that’s what it takes, then so be it.”
