Dr Punam said her goodbyes to Strictly[/caption]

Punam Krishan became the latest celebrity to leave Strictly, after finding herself in the dance off.

The TV doctor was given her marching orders alongside pro partner Gorka Marquez.

After her fate was declared by the judges, Punam said: “This is just one of those things that I have dreamt about for years and I think to have one of your dreams genuinely come true is just a surreal feeling. 

“Week after week it’s been incredible, I’ve made friends for life and everyone’s just been so kind, so thank you.” 

Gorka also heaped praise on his partner, telling her: “It’s been incredible, it’s been a fantastic six weeks. I’m very proud of what she has achieved. 

“She’s a GP and a mum, she had never danced before and I think she improved week by week.

“I think she is truly what the show is about, someone who doesn’t have experience in the performance world came here and learnt to dance.

“She wanted to do so well and worked so hard.” 

He also made a nod to their groundbreaking Bollywood performance from Movies Week, and said: “I feel very proud and very honoured that  we got to do a Bollywood dance, to represent your culture, show your culture to the world and open doors for so many people in your culture.” 

Puna then added: “Thank you. Thank you for believing in me. Thank you for giving me the gift of dancing.

“I’ve never danced before, but you’ve definitely sparked so much dancing. 

“I want to learn more, and I definitely don’t think this will be the end of my journey dancing.”

The dance off

Puna and Gorka found themselves in the dance off against Shayne Ward and Nancy Xu during the sixth results show of the series.

This meant that both couples had to perform their routines again.

Shayne and Nancy then performed a Paso Doble to In The Hall of The Mountain King by Edvard Grieg.  

The judges then decided unanimously to save Shayne and Nancy.

Unsure of what to do, the anonymous woman took to social media to share her confession, leaving many open-mouthed. 

Posting on Reddit, on the SexAddiction thread, the woman titled her post ‘Female sex addict’.

She then confessed: “I’m 90% sure I have a sex addiction. 

“I feel really isolated with it because I never really see women talking about this.

“The one person I opened up to about it in real life brushed it off and was kind of like “you’re just young and having fun” but I know it’s more than that.”

The woman explained that she is ashamed to admit, but sex is all she thinks about.

She continued: “Sex has completely taken over my life.

“It’s literally all I think about and has got to the point I’ll miss commitments to stay home and masturbate all day. 

“I feel a lot of shame surrounding the whole thing, I don’t even know why I’m posting this, I guess I’m just hoping someone will relate.”

Not only does she feel like a ‘freak’ but she is concerned that now, her sex addiction is affecting others too.

She added: “I feel like nobody in my life gets it and it makes me feel even more like a freak. 

“I’ve been involved in situations with multiple married men so it’s getting to the point it’s also affecting other people.”

As a result, she asked Reddit users for advice: “The things I get off to are also really messed up and I just don’t really know where to go from here.”

REDDIT USERS REACT

Reddit users flocked to the comments to share their thoughts, with many offering guidance for the young woman. 

Have you considered speaking to a therapist?

Reddit user

One person said: “First of all, you are not a freak. you are you and that is ok. This is something that can be worked through. 

“Yes, it’s affecting your life and the lives of others but the fact that you recognise it is important.

“Have you considered speaking to a therapist?” 

Another added: “Keep moving forward, and you have value outside of sex and with yourself. Rooting for you.” 

A third commented: “I love the book: Women, Sex and Addiction: A Search for Love and Power.

“It’s a really good book and would make you feel you are not alone.”

A driver asked police to ‘let him off’ as it was his wedding day after they found he had no insurance on a £200,000 Lamborghini.

The soon-to-be groom was picked up by road traffic officers following four reports that the lime-green sports car had been speeding.

They ran checks on the convertible vehicle – after stopping it in Bury, Greater Manchester – which showed it did not have any damage protection.

The man then tried to use his upcoming nuptials to plead with officers to spare him punishment.

But Greater Manchester Police joked that as they had ‘no confetti on hand’, they ignored his request and ‘threw six penalty points’ at him instead.

The officers also seized the vehicle.

Writing on X, a spokesperson for the force said: “Four reports of this Lamborghini speeding in Bury.

“When stopped, driver couldn’t prove valid insurance, but asked to be let off as it’s his wedding day.

“Had no confetti on hand, so we improvised and threw six points at the would be groom instead. Car seized.”
