Helen Skelton has been met with an outpouring support for her 'fight back' on Strictly Come Dancing after a tough time in her personal life, with the star flooded with comments over a tour photo she posted on Instagram.
It was well documented before Helen signed up for Strictly that her marriage to rugby star Richie Myler had broken down, with her then having to see stories about him moving on with a new girlfriend.
After being the final star to be confirmed on the BBC show's line-up for last year, Helen had a rather hesitant introduction to life in the ballroom, as she battled a crippling lack of self confidence. However, with some help from her pro partner Gorka Marquez, she turned a corner in Strictly's special to honour the BBC's 100th birthday, when she and Gorka flew up the leaderboardc thanks to their brilliant Charleston to theme tune to Blue peter, the show she used to present.
