She shared an emotional post on social media
Helen Skelton has been caught up in a new Strictly 'love triangle' as she swaps regular dance partner Gorka Marquez for Kai Widdrington on the upcoming Strictly Come Dancing tour this year. Helen, 39, partnered with Spanish dancer Gorka Marquez all the way to the finale last year before narrowly missing out on winning the Glitterball trophy.
Speaking to The Sun, she said: "It's really difficult not to be with Gorka because we're such good friends. I've been asking him for advice a lot, so it feels like he's here. I'd have loved for him to do it, but it's almost like he's in the group."She added: "It's such a tight knit group in the studio anyway. We all talked and all had a laugh. so it's different, but it wasn't a worry and like 'oh my god what's going to happen'.
In a post on social media, Helen also shared a sweet declaration to Gorka after partnering her through a rocky year in 2022. Before joining Strictly last year, Helen had split from husband Richie Myler, just months after giving birth to their third child. Not long after, it emerged the Leeds Rhino's star had coupled up and got his new partner pregnant.
She then moved onto praising her former dance partner Gorka: "Two: there’s about to be a whole lot of strictly tour spam that doesn’t involve @gorka_marquez and I need to mark this chapter with an acknowledgement and appreciation of my wingman.
