Fleur East says BBC Strictly Come Dancing has been 'a blessing' for her marriage

Fleur East revealed that BBC Strictly Come Dancing has been a 'blessing' for her marriage as she appeared on ITV's Lorraine on Friday morning (December 9).

Fleur, who married French designer Marcel Badiane-Robin in 2019, was joined by dance partner Vito Coppola for a chat with Lorraine Kelly. The pair have made it through to the competition's semi-final, alongside Helen Skelton and Gorka Márquez, Hamza Yassin and Jowita Przystal, Molly Rainford and Carlos Gu and Will Mellor and Nancy Xu.

The next instalment of Strictly will air on Sunday December 11, instead of its usual Saturday night spot due to the FIFA World Cup, as England take on France from 7pm in the quarter-final. Strictly's results show will instead air on Monday December 12.
