“Some of them are so nerve-racking that I can’t show you,” Shirley explained as she admitted she fears for her safety in public.<\/p>\n

“I am not just talking about your phone,” the judge continued. “I am talking about being in public. You worry about those same strange people that write these kind of messages.<\/p>\n

“Are they lurking in dark corners? Are they hiding behind walls when you go somewhere?”<\/p>\n

Shirley added: “This whole experience has made me much more vigilant. I cannot say that I leave my front door unless I am on point. I never relax. It has changed my life completely I would say.”<\/p>\n

The former ballroom champion said she had contemplated leaving Strictly due to the horrid messages she’d been sent.<\/p>\n

“It’s when it is personal about myself and my family and it affects my mental health,” she added.<\/p>\n

“I have had people draw coffins with me in it with somebody with a spade that said, ‘Die you b***h’.”<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Despite her struggles with the trolls, Shirley put on a brave face and dazzled Strictly Come Dancing fans during the launch show which aired on Saturday night.<\/p>\n

Ahead of her performance to Praising You, Shirley told the cameras: \u201cThe audience is in for a real treat. My dance shoes are back out and it feels amazing. I\u2019ve been put through my paces.<\/p>\n

\u201cBut to be dancing with my fellow judges and the professional dancers is a feeling like no other.\u201d<\/p>\n

Olivia Attwood vs. The Trolls is available to watch on ITVX. <\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n
