Nadiya Bychkova rushed to hospital after fall at Strictly rehearsals

A fall during Strictly Come Dancing rehearsals led to Nadiya Bychkova being taken to hospital for checks. Reports say the 35-year-old pro was treated at A&E after emergency services were called from Regent’s Park Road on Tuesday. The Strictly team says she received medical and welfare support, and rehearsals continued with the production staying in touch with her as a precaution.

Later accounts indicate she has been discharged from hospital after tests and is recuperating at home. A representative for the show declined to comment on personal medical matters, while noting that the program will keep safety and welfare at the forefront as the series approaches.

The incident underscores how live television relies on rapid, well coordinated safety responses. Even a fall during rehearsals can disrupt a studio schedule and shift the focus of promotion from star power to welfare protocols. The emphasis on medical care and ongoing support highlights the fragile balance between public interest in a celebrity lineup and a private health update. As the BBC reveals part of its new series lineup, the episode risks becoming a case study in how production teams manage health scares without derailing publicity momentum.
