Why did Bruno Tonioli leave Strictly?

Bruno was on Strictly for 18 years, having joined in 2004. Despite being a well-established judge on the show, the star admitted in 2018 that he has never actually watched it. 

Sharing the very understandable reason, he told Radio Times magazine: "I've been doing it for 14 years and I never watched a single show because I don't want to become self-conscious. But we recently made a DVD of all the best dances from Blackpool – that was the first time I watched something back."

His decision to leave the hit BBC show in 2022 was due to his exhausting travel schedule, which saw him travelling back and forth between the UK and the States each week.

"I'm done," he told The Sun, adding: "I just can't do it anymore." The Italian judge, who has appeared on Strictly since the first series, will now concentrate on being a judge on the US version, Dancing With The Stars.

Bruno explained: "Last year I changed my [plane] ticket every week - they need continuity. I absolutely support them, it's my decision." He added: "Anton [Du Beke] has done a fantastic job. He deserves to be on that seat."
