Kings and Queens’ dancer, Kerri-Anne Donaldson who was an ex-star of Britain’s Got Talent has been reported dead by her family. She was 38, and her death occurred on Thursday, June 8, 2023. No cause of death was announced.
“My heart hurts and my world has just collapsed around me. My beautiful baby sister is no longer with us and I don’t know how to process it. I love you, Kerri, you’re my best friend, we were inseparable and right now I don’t know how to fill the void. Be peaceful and hold Nan tight,” her elder sister, Cara shared.
Tributes have been pouring in from her fellow dance colleagues and other industry players.
“Kerri-Anne Donaldson – remember that name and please never forget it because it belongs to a woman who loved to dance, create, and perform, she had the cheekiest laugh and a heart of gold. She hated getting in the car with me, but would always listen to my crazy ideas, we shared so many moments and stories, and she was always the voice of reason. Kerry, you were my friend and like my big sister,” fellow dancer, Neil Jones paid her tribute.
“Absolutely heartbroken. I’ve known Kerri since we were kids and she was always the loveliest girl. A friend and a dance partner. I’m glad we got to dance together this xmas. And that the whole cast of Strictly Ballroom got to work with you in rehearsals. RIP,” Strictly pro, Kevin Clifton also wrote.
“So shocked and sad. Such a beautiful dancer and kind soul! Sending love to all of your family and friends. Heaven has certainly gained an angel. Keep dancing up there lovely,” fellow dancer, Amy Dowden wrote.
