Strictly's Helen Skelton makes 'honest' admissions over daughter's birthday as co-stars support her

Helen Skelton has received plenty of support after making an 'honest' admission on how her daughter's birthday went, with a few candid insights into her home life.

Former Blue Peter star Helen has had an extremely hectic few months with being on Strictly Come Dancing and making it all the way to the final, alongside pro partner Gorka Marquez. After a rather shaky start to her time on the show, which saw Helen hit by nerves and a lack of self-confidence, she flourished in the ballroom and, after coming close twice in the weeks leading up to the final, eventually got her much sought after perfect 40 out of 40, for the reprise of her and Gorka's Couple's Choice routine.

Helen and Gorka missed out on Strictly victory, with Hamza and Jowita taking home the Glitterball trophy and, in the aftermath of the final, Helen has been linked with a number of TV jobs, including hosting Countryfile with new champion Hamza.
