Thomas Skinner, known from The Apprentice, had a dramatic debut on BBC’s Strictly Come Dancing with Amy Dowden. Despite a recent confession of infidelity, Thomas made it clear in a fiery statement: “I won’t be cancelled.” He took to social media to confront his critics head-on, acknowledging his past mistakes but emphasising his resilience.
Fans of Strictly were eager to see the former Apprentice star paired with soon-to-be fan-favourite Amy, who bravely returned after overcoming breast cancer. She had stepped back last year due to a foot injury but is now ready to waltz back into our hearts.
Thomas opened up about his personal struggles, admitting to a fling that temporarily shook his marriage but noted that he and his wife have moved forward stronger than before. He’s now not letting the controversy derail him, saying: “Life ain’t easy. I’ve been knocked down but I’m still here, stronger than before.”
Addressing his critics, he added: “I’m in a fight I can’t win, but I don’t give up. I’ve lived through my struggles, and that’s why I stand with those who graft day in, day out. I’m just grateful for the love and support I’ve been getting.”
Thomas reminds everyone that mistakes don’t define us but rather how we rise from them. He’s focused on his family and says that love keeps him grounded.
And just like that, he’s not backing down. “Keep pushing. If I can, so can you. We are strong. We are proud. We never give up,” Thomas encourages fans and followers alike. Thank you for all the support! Bosh!
