Strictly’s Thomas Skinner Seen With Tom Holland’s Former Bodyguard After Death-Threat Reports

The BBC says it has not altered protocols for any one cast member despite tabloid claims of a wider security overhaul.

Overview

  • Photographs show former Royal Marine Daniel Gilbert accompanying Skinner and partner Amy Dowden during location filming at Kempton Park.
  • Skinner says he has received "loads of death threats" and argues he is being miscast politically after recent online backlash.
  • Producers declined to discuss specific security arrangements, with a BBC spokesman stating there have been no changes tied to an individual.
  • Tabloid outlets report close-protection officers are being used on location and claim SRM Security has replaced Olympus Security at Elstree, which officials have not confirmed.
  • Skinner has posted on X defending himself and referencing abuse, as scrutiny continues over his admitted affair and his attendance at a JD Vance barbecue.
