Kym - Is she being held hostage?

I’ve enjoyed both live shows so far and think this years cast are a good one. But I can’t help but think that Kym looks unhappy and disinterested in the whole thing. Maybe I’m doing her a disservice, maybe that’s just her natural facial expressions but there’s something about her I’m not buying. And I like Graz, he’s a lovely lovely man irl so no real reason for to be unhappy there. What do others think?

A lot of misconceptions can be formed from body language and facial expressions. How many of us have been told to cheer up when we've felt perfectly fine?
This!!!
Both times they've been on and he doesn't seem his usual happy self.
Harsh. If I decided to only be interested in celebs I was invested in before the show started I wouldn't be watching much of the show.
Kym was never going to be in it for the long haul anyhow, and I'm getting the impression from people's comments that she's likely to be a shock exit, which doesn't surprise me.
- talking at length about their families
- discussing fitting in Strictly into their "busy" schedules.
Kym has been guilty of both from the start - I didn't really have much of an opinion before Strictly, but so far I'm not overly keen. Her dancing is OK, but it doesn't seem to be a great partnership - whether that is just one of those things or if there's more to it I don't really know.
I think Graziano seems a lovely guy, but not sure if he can bring out much joy/enthusiasm from her?
It is such a great privilege to be on the show and it is nice when there is some indication of genuine gratitude from the contestants.
I couldn't agree more.
Anyway, looks like the press team are busy.

I've not noticed anything but yes she wouldn't be the first in this scenario and won't be the last.
Well said
Kym has a natural resting bitch face!
She is lucky she gets to dance with sexy Graz!
Surprised Helen isn't in the thread title. Claudia seems to be carrying out a welfare check every week on what's going on in the training room, plus they way she sticks her thumb up for Gorka to answer questions for her. Helen's reaction getting through to next week seemed to be a bit too in sync to not be pre rehearsed.
Plus a lot of them ramp up enthusiasm levels to hysterical teenager mode and we never hear the end of them being 'superfans'. I think it makes those who just hobble along taking the rough with the smooth of Strictly, like normal humans, seem the ones who are off-kilter. A lot, and I mean A LOT, of 'celebs' turn down or donot respond positively to feelers to take part in this show we love. There are good reasons for that, and yet there is a real hostility towards anyone who dares to suggest Strictly may not always be a bed of roses/they will not be lifelong friends with their pro, or otherwise just treats it as another paid gig.
a) tired from her packed schedule
b) a bit wary of the press attention that standing closely to Graziano might bring (an exaggeration obviously, but her previous relationships have been tabloid fodder compared to someone like Ellie T or Kaye, she’ll be aware)
and c) has resting bitch face. I relate, because I do too.
I know she said she wanted him anyway but can’t help feeling herself and Gio would have been a much more electric pairing.
Considering that Vick Hope got told off regularly by the producers of the show for her attitude and rarely turned by for rehearsals and when she did show up would disappear after an hour I think Graziano got as much as he could out of her to be honest.
Oh, yes, bring up Vick Hope, who many on here seemed to have marked as a finalist before she even hit the dance floor. Then of course it was all the fault of Graziano. When it turned out no it was not, she was just a lazy cow who could not be arsed doing the training. How many years ago is that now? Since then every partner he has trained adores him saying how caring he is and makes sure they are comfortable with the chorography he has for them.
No, Kim, would be exactly the same with Gio. Electric my backside.
