Strictly's Kaye Adams says she relies on two hearing aids as she starts rehearsals for BBC show

Strictly Come Dancing star Kaye Adams has opened up about wearing hearing aids ahead of the start of the 2022 series. The Loose Women presenter, 59, recently shared the news after visiting a Boots audiologist for a hearing test. Kaye is one of 15 celebrities who will be taking to the dancefloor this year.

Kaye recently opened up about her diagnosis on Loose Women. She told her co-stars: “You don’t go for a test without having your suspicions, so it didn’t come completely out of the blue. But I suppose what did come as a surprise was the advice to have two (hearing aids). In my head I was reconciled to needing one, not two."

She revealed that, upon seeing an audiologist, the reason she requires two hearing aids is because of balance. “It makes sense,” she added. “And I think getting a good understanding of it all is a really big part of accepting it.”
