Strictly's Helen Skelton and Gorka Marquez are 'partnership made in heaven', presenter says

Professional dancer and presenter Janette Manrara had to intervene during last night's instalment of Strictly - It Takes Two (November 3) as a pair of dancers began to cheekily play fight. Janette had to step in as Countryfile presenter Helen Skelton and her professional dance partner Gorka Marquez started to playfully bicker on-air.

LeedsLive reports that Janette branded Helen and Gorka's partnership as one 'made in heaven' as she broke things up between the pairing. Helen said that she came on Strictly to 'have fun' after splitting from her ex-husband Richie Myler in April, a few months after welcoming their daughter into the world.

And it seems that Helen is enjoying herself after a tough year, with the 39-year-old ex-Blue Peter presenter and Strictly professional Gorka appearing to have a great time together on-screen. Last night, the pair appeared on Strictly - It Takes Two to discuss their dance last weekend and their upcoming performance tomorrow (November 5).
