- Morning Live presenter Helen Skelton revealed the "best lesson" she learned from her participation in Strictly Come Dancing in 2022, which took place months after her marriage breakdown.
- Skelton joined the dancing competition following her sudden split from husband Richie Myler, using the show as a significant "distraction" for herself and her children from the heartbreak.
- She stated that the most valuable lesson she gained from the experience was that "no one is interested in your drama," preferring to "just show up and get it done" rather than oversharing personal struggles.
- Skelton reached the final of the 2022 series, becoming a much-loved fan favourite, though wildlife presenter Hamza Yassin ultimately took home the Glitterball trophy.
- During her time on the show, Skelton alluded to her challenging year before a memorable Musicals Week performance, and her professional partner Gorka Marquez also referenced her difficult period, prompting her later comments on public sharing.
