Helen Skelton looked stunning as she rocked a pair of leather pants before fighting back tears during the latest leg of the Strictly Come Dancing Live tour. The Countryfile host has spent the last week out on the road with several of her fellow Strictly 2022 stars and some of the show's cast of professional dancers as they perform at arenas across the country.
The tour kicked off in Birmingham last week before heading to Nottingham and Leeds with Manchester next on the list with shows on Saturday (January 28) and Sunday (January 29) at the city's AO Arena. But Helen, who made it to the final of the BBC One dnace contest last month, isn't dancing with Gorka Marquez.
Despite the pair being within touching distance of the Glitterball trophy during the final in December, which was instead lifted by Hamza Yassin and Jowita Przystał, Helen has had to swap dance partner for the string of live shows. She has been paired with Kai Widdrington after Gorka chose not to sign up for the tour in order to spend time with his family - fiancee Gemma Atkinson and their daughter, Mia.
