Helen Skelton speaks out on 'Strictly love triangle' as she pines for missing Gorka

Helen Skelton has been caught up in a new Strictly 'love triangle' as she swaps Gorka Marquez for Kai Widdrington on the 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. Viewers watching the BBC final saw a furious Gorka after missing out on the Strictly win, and shortly after it was revealed the 32-year-old will not be involved in the upcoming tour.

Switching partners has been an adjustment for Helen as she partners 6ft1 Kai after weeks of dancing with 5ft6 Gorka.
