Strictly’s Helen Skelton and dance partner Gorka Marquez got into what has been described as a ‘flirty play fight’ on BBC2’s show - forcing host Janette Manrara to step in. The moment came as one body language expert said the pair had ‘grown incredibly close’ over the past few weeks.
On the Strictly It Takes Two show Helen, who recently split with Leeds Rhinos ex-husband Richie Myler, revealed Gorka had offered to take her away. Her dance partner then was asked by Janette where to - and he replied “The woods!”, before adding, looking guilty: “The Strictly woods” as he held his hands up in a gesture of innocence.
Body language expert Darren Stanton has said he’s noticed some interesting moments of intense eye contact between Helen and her pro-dance partner. Speaking on behalf of Betfair Casino, Darren added: “Helen and Gorka put on a fantastic performance and again, were completely in sync, the Daily Record reports.
