Strictly’s Tyler West has put his place on the show in jeopardy as he flies to Mauritius for his brother’s wedding
Tyler confessed he still hadn’t packed for his travels last night

Tyler admitted on Saturday night’s show that his family weren’t in the audience supporting him because they’re currently in Mauritius for his brother’s wedding.
The star is due to reunite with them very soon.
SE understands that he will leave the UK Tuesday night and return home on Thursday morning.
Tyler, who is partnered with pro dancer Dianne Buswell, admitted that he still hadn’t packed last night at 11.29pm.
He confessed on his Instagram story: “I still need to pack good night Monday.”
This morning the radio presenter shared a video of his “fresh trim” in a car, and he zoomed the camera in on the road sign to Gatwick airport.
He previously shared a video of himself trying on his suit for the wedding with a countdown to Mauritius, which stated 16 hours and 13 minutes to go.
Tyler captioned the post: “1 day to go,” with a love heart and crying face emoji.
In his role as best man, Tyler told BBC Breakfast earlier this month that he was flying to the holiday hotspot for less than 12 hours for the ceremony.
Showing commitment to his BBC dancing stint, he said: “I think I’ve put my body through the paces and then I thought, Lewis, my brother, I’m the best man for his wedding, so I’m flying to Mauritius for, I think, about nine hours.”
The star added: “So, yeah, I kept the schedule light this year!”
Tyler was also making reference to his London Marathon efforts, after being supported through the iconic race by Aussie Dianne.
Talking of his recovery, he added: “I don’t have the methods or the strategy to it, I just did it.
“I just firmed it, absolutely woke up and firmed it.
“My body has been a bit of a slow one this week, I’ve obviously had to have time to recover and just be smart with how we’re training and stuff.
“But I’ll tell you what – once-in-a-lifetime experience, just a crazy weekend.”
