Zara McDermott is slowly returning to social media as normal after speaking out about her experience on Strictly Come Dancing.

The documentary-maker recently revealed how she wasn't completely honest about her time on the show. She said she couldn't speak out about her journey on the BBC One dance contest last year due to fear of 'victim blaming' after it was revealed her 2023 dance partner Graziano Di Prima had been axed from the show due to his behaviour.

The dancer previously said he "deeply regrets" the events that have led to his exit from the hit show. He acknowledged that his "intense passion and determination to win might have affected" his training regime while competing in the dance competition.

Since speaking out, Zara has slowly been sharing her usual updates on social media and on Monday (July 29) was seen back in the kitchen where she was seen whipping herself up a delicious lunch.
