Letting out an enthusiastic laugh, she responded: “If you don’t wanna do a dance-off, get rid of Chris!”
While Fleur was left visibly speechless by Toyah’s comments, she quickly added: “You’re all going to have to face a dance-off!”
The stand-up comic wrote on X on Tuesday afternoon: “All I can say is that [Toyah] has been nothing but beautiful and supportive and what she said on [It] Takes Two was funny and an incredible bloody compliment.”
“It’s been such a joy and a privilege, [Toyah],” he added, signing off his message: “Lots of love, enjoy the surfing!”
HuffPost UK previously contacted representatives for both Toyah Willcox and Strictly Come Dancing.
So far in this year’s series of Strictly, Chris – who has made history as the first blind celebrity to ever compete on the long-running dance show – has emerged as a favourite in the competition, finishing in the top half of the leaderboard every week.
Strictly Come Dancing continues on Saturday night at 6.20pm on BBC One.
