Kym Marsh has shared her Strictly Come Dancing partner's own family tragedy which also inspired their emotional routine in the ballroom this weekend. The former Coronation Street star was in tears on Saturday night after performing a moving dance in memory of her late son, Archie.
Kym went through the devastating loss of baby Archie, with her ex-husband Jamie Lomas, at 21 weeks of pregnancy. During the latest show, a tearful Kym dedicated her and dance partner Graziano Di Prima's American Smooth Foxtrot to the Snow Patrol ballad Chasing Cars to Archie, who died shortly after his birth in 2009.
Explaining the importance of their routine in a VT aired before she and Graziano took to the dancefloor, Kym said: "It might get people talking about their experience." She added: "It's the right road to putting your life back together."
