Vernon Kay reckons his quirky personality is the reason Strictly Come Dancing host Tess Daly fell for him in the first place. Chatting on-air with Scott Mills on Friday, the 50-year-old confessed to his love of dressing up—so much so that he recently splashed out on a rhinestone cowboy suit. Curious about the unusual purchase, Scott asked, “Have you actually? Where are you going to wear that?”
“Well… I don’t know, I honestly don’t know,” Vernon admitted before revealing, “I ain’t gonna lie, Scott Mills, I like dressing up. I have a trunk full of Star Wars costumes, Halloween costumes—I love dressing up, and I don’t mind.” And it’s not just for parties. Vernon happily admitted that he’s been known to pop down to the local supermarket fully dressed as a movie character, reported Bristol Live.
