Helen Skelton hinted at her split from her ex-husband and rugby player Richie Myler on Strictly Come Dancing. The TV presenter copped it from Craig Revel Horwood on the BBC show last weekend, when the sharp-tongued judge labelled her performance 'rigid' and 'wooden'.
But it's hard to keep a tough cookie like Helen down, reports the Mirror. Despite ex-husband Richie Myler, 32, walking out on their marriage earlier this year, Helen has bounced back in fierce style, quick-stepping her way up the leaderboard and growing in confidence every week.
Leeds Rhinos star Richie is now expecting a baby with Stephanie Thirkill, 32, the daughter of club president Andrew Thirkill. But rather than waste time wallowing, Helen, 39, threw herself feet first into Strictly, which she said has changed her life.
