She's spoken out
Strictly Come Dancing star Helen Skelton has revealed she cried after taking to the floor at Blackpool's Tower Ballroom.
She said: "I'm not used to being the centre of attention and wearing a lot of make-up. Even after 10 weeks of being on this show, I still don't find it easy strutting across the dancefloor on my own." The fan favourite said being in Blackpool gave her and her partner Gorka Marquez a "huge boost" and added that she "felt a bit teary" during Saturday's show as her parents were proudly watching on. She said: "Another memory to add to our Blackpool family album."
