Strictly Come Dancing contestant, Kym Marsh, has defended herself after claims were made by viewers who spotted her in-laws in the audience watching the show. It was Halloween week on the BBC's hit programme and the pressure was on for all contestants to keep their spot on the show.
Former Coronation Street star Kym, paired with her professional dance partner Graziano Di Prima, performed the first female celebrity Rumba of the series to Frozen by Madonna while dressed as a witch. As Kym and Graziano headed up the stairs to chat to Strictly co-host Claudia Winkleman for the post dance chat, Claudia said to Kym: "Your in-laws are here. Did that add to the pressure?"
The camera then showed Kym’s in-laws, who were sat in the audience alongside their son, and Kym's husband, Scott Ratcliffe. Kym replied: "Well yeah when I’m dancing like that with him,” as Claudia and Graziano laughed. Graziano then shouted out: "I love you Scott," before the pair were given their results - an impressive 34 out of a possible 50.
