Zara, 27, seen in London, is off to Majorca for Love Island Aftersun on ITV.

Zara has broken her silence on Pete Wicks signing up for Strictly, despite her own show scandal.

She spoke out last month about the BBC show, claiming her dance partner Graziano Di Prima had hit, spat at and kicked her during rehearsals.

It resulted in the Italian choreographer being sacked from the programme.
