Will Mellor left his fans and celebrity followers swooning as he showed off his post-Strictly Come Dancing transformation The actor wowed viewers of the hit BBC One show with his moves last year when he took part in the dance contest with professional dancer Nancy Xu.
And their were tears when the pair bowed out of the 2022 run of competition just before the final, which saw Hamza Yassin and Jowita Przystał lift the Glitterball trophy after facing stiff competition from Molly Rainford and Carlos Gu, Helen Skelton and Gorka Marquez, and Fleur East and Vito Coppola.
But despite being gutted at leaving the completion in the quarter-final, Will did get his winning moment as he hit the road at the start of the year with his dancing co-stars for the Strictly Live tour. It was quite the homecoming for Will as the Bredbury-born star won each show held at Manchester's AO Arena last month.
