Kaye Adams red-faced as she opens up to Loose Women co-stars about Strictly injury

Strictly Come Dancing star Kaye Adams has revealed she's already suffering from an injury after just one live show.

The 59-year-old broadcaster took to the dance floor over the weekend to perform a very sexy Tango with her professional partner Kai Widdrington.

Appearing on Monday's Loose Women, Kaye admitted she was blushing as her co-stars praised her first routine.

"Wasn't she fantastic?!" lead panelist Ruth Langsford said, before telling Kaye: "You were brilliant! But how did you actually find it?"

"This is the first time I've seen it so that's why I'm reacting like this! I was so far out of my comfort zone, it was unbelievable," Kaye explained as her cheeks turned red.

"There just comes a moment, you either lock yourself in the bathroom or you go out there and do it! It's almost as simple as that, but oh my God, there's so many conflicting thoughts going through your head," Kaye continued.

Janet Street-Porter then asked her: "What part of your body is aching the most now?" to which Kaye quickly replied: "My brain!"

She then said: "It is actually my brain... I've got a wee groin strain but you don't wanna hear about that, TMI!

"If you've never ever danced before, it is trying to make your body respond to these messages from your brain that it's just not used to! I've never been sending these messages, I've never been able to co-ordinate movement really!" Kaye added.

"It is a mental challenge I would say more than everything else, and then you've got the emotional challenge on top of it which is: "Do I look like a 59-year-old sack of potatoes?' which was going through my head!"

The Loose Women ladies were quick to reassure her before asking her about her professional partner Kai.

"He is the most brilliant teacher," Kaye said, before adding: "He is such a mature guy, he's 27, he is so patient and such a great teacher."
