STRICTLY star Nancy Xu was left mopping up blood as she appeared to suffer a horror injury mid-dance.
The star was partnered with Les Dennis and could be seen wiping away blood from her ear.
It appeared to have run down her face and under her chin as she was handed a tissue as she chatted to host Claudia Winkleman.
She could be seen clutching onto it as she appeared to have wiped her face as the camera was not focused on her.
Nancy did not comment on the injury as she was interviewed by Tess Daly and Claudia.
Eagle-eyed fans noticed that she appeared to have suffered an injury as she listened to the feedback from the judges.
The camera then chose to zoom in solely on Les after it became apparent that Nancy had hurt herself.
One concerned fan wrote online: “Hope Nancy is ok… @bbcstrictly that looks like an injury.”
Another asked: “What has happened to Nancy’s neck?”
A third worried fan added: “What was on the side of Nancy’s neck?? Is my girl okay??”
Before a fourth said: “Nancy is bleeding! Poor Nancy!”
