Britain’s Got Talent bosses took to social media to reassure fans on Monday evening after Ant McPartlin took a tumble live on air.
The presenter, along with Declan Donnelly, joined Diversity to perform a dance routine as the live semi finals got underway on ITV. Ashley Banjo was at the centre of the stage as Ant and Dec slid in from the left and right sides respectively.
But the camera cut away from the shot as Ant suffered a fall. He then rolled into a ball on the floor before being helped up by Ashley.

Fans at home clearly noticed what happened. Taking to Twitter, Jade said: “Ant’s put his back out already, good start” while Louisa said: “Omg Ant are you okay that looked like a bad fall”.
Fiona said: “How many times will Ant’s fall be on blooper shows over the next few years? That was a sore one”. Niall said: “Ant Dec’d it”, and Danny said: “That was a hell of a slip!”
Moments later, a tweet from the official BGT account said: “Don’t worry, Ant’s fine!” before Ant told viewers he was okay but joked he had “wet himself” during the incident.
Britain’s Got Talent continues each night this week at 8pm on ITV and ITVX
