Guitarist Robert Fripp, who has been married to Willcox since 1986, got into a disagreement with Craig Revel Horwood while he was sharing his thoughts on Willcox's Samba performance of Poor Unfortunate Souls from The Little Mermaid during the live Movie Week show.

"I thought everything seemed a bit bogged down," Horwood remarked. As he went on, his words were overshadowed by a much louder boo coming from the studio, and the camera captured Fripp standing up and shouting "boo" at the judge.

Horwood instructed him to "take a seat, young man" and to "compose" himself, just before host Tess Daly disclosed that it was Willcox's spouse!

While they were laughing, Horwood added, "But honestly, you brought an incredible spirit and wonderful personality to that performance."

After listening to the judges' opinions, it was finally time to reveal their scores for the week. Willcox and dance professional Neil Jones earned a total of 15 points, with Craig giving them a score of three and the other judges each awarding four.

Recently, the duo has struggled and fallen near the bottom of the leaderboard, earning only 18 points one week and 12 points the following week.

Last weekend, the duo found themselves in the challenging position of a dance-off against Tom Dean and Nadiya Bychkova. In the end, the judges chose to keep Willcox in the competition.
