Strictly Come Dancing's Kevin Clifton leaves fans swooning after posing in Speedos

Strictly Come Dancing's Kevin Clifton left fans hot under the collar as he paraded around in his Speedos.

The dancer, 39, posed in a swimming pool changing room in his teeny tiny swimmers ahead of new reality show The Games.

As well as making comments on his toned physique, fans told Kevin that his girlfriend Stacey Dooley was a "lucky girl".

Referencing Olympic diver Tom Daley, Stacey commented on Kevin's photo: "Tom is SHAKING," along with some parrot emojis.

"@sjdooley you lucky girl" one fan joked.

"Like a young Tom Daley!" another wrote.

"Ooo I say look at you in ya Budgie Smugglers looking good Mr Clifton xx," one teased.

The new ITV show hosted by Holly Willoughby and Freddie Flintoff will see twelve stars split into six men and six women endure intense coaching and training before competing.

The live athletics show will see the celebrities undertake gruelling challenges.

Joining Kevin in the men's team is Coronation Street's Colson Smith and Ryan Thomas, The Wanted's Max George, Love Island's Wes Nelson and Harry Potter actor turned MMA fighter Josh Herdman.

While the women's team is made of Emmerdale's Rebecca Sarker, newsreader Lucrezia Millarini, songwriter and podcast host Chelcee Grimes, Love Island's Olivia Attwood, model Phoenix Brown, and autism ambassador Christine McGuinness.

Events include diving and the 100-meter sprint along with many others, taking place inside a gymnasium, velodrome, swimming pool and track.

As well as coverage of the races, each episode will follow the celebrities' training as they work to get the highest points on the leaderboard.

Speaking ahead of the show, This Morning's Holly said: "I'm really excited to be presenting The Real Games with Freddie and the rest of the team. I can't wait to watch our celebrity competitors go head-to-head."

Freddie, who recently left A League Of Their Own, added: "This is going to be a brilliant week of TV. Our celeb competitors will need to be at the top of their game to be in with a chance of topping the medals table."

The Games will run for five episodes and its release date is yet to be announced.

Fans have been begging Kevin to pop the question to journalist and presenter Stacey since they first met on 2018's Strictly Come Dancing.

Kevin shared a snap of them both and followers flocked to the comment section.

"When are you two gonna get married lol xx stunning photo xx," one wrote, and another commented: "Marry her!!"

"Is that an engagement ring? If so, massive congrats!" another chimed.
