Strictly Come Dancing insider says Dom is a bad sport
6 November 2007 - Lilia Kopylova ignored celebrity dance partner Dominic Littlewood after he was a "bad sport", it has been alleged.
Dom, who got shirty with the judges after they gave his less-than-stellar performance the thumbs down, annoyed Lilia by being stroppy, an insider on the show told the Sun.
After dancing his way out of the show following a final battle with John Barnes, Dom claimed he was not that unhappy about going home, because now he could treat himself to a curry.
But behind the scenes, Lilia was furious with him for being moody with the judges and coming across as a bad sport.
"[He] had a go at them for not giving him and Lilia a better score," the source said. "[Lilia] ignored Dom in the bar afterwards and hasn't spoken to him since. She is steaming."
Lilia, who is 29, was born in Russia and has made numerous appearances on Strictly Come Dancing alongside her day job as a professional dancer.
She teamed up with Aled Jones on the first series and went on to win the 2005 competition with cricketer Darren Gough. The fourth series saw her dance with rugby player Matt Dawson.
