Allegations against
Artem Chigvintsev are resurfacing from one of former partners on U.K.’s
Strictly Come Dancing.
Following his August 29
arrest on suspicion of domestic violence, a 2015 interview with Fern Britton, a British television presenter, is gaining attention. In it, Britton accused the
Dancing with the Stars pro of shoving and kicking her during their time as partners on the hit show in 2012.
“We would be in hold and he would look at my feet and just kick me or shove me,” she claimed in an interview with
The Huffington Post UK.
She also said he would say, “You just stand there and don’t move, I dance round you.”
At times, Britton admitted she was afraid of Chigvintsev, claiming he once told her to “shut your face. Go home before I kill you.”
“I would say, ‘Oh please just kill me, it would be easier,’” she alleged. “Or what was his other one? ‘If you go for a cup of tea now, I will blow off like an atomic bomb.’ I thought, ‘Well, I won’t correct him on that one.’”
