Strictly’s Helen Skelton reunited with pro partner Gorka as they head for lunch with show’s stars

HELEN Skelton was all smiles as she enjoyed lunch with Strictly Come Dancing partner Gorka Marquez.

The Countryfile presenter, 39, shared the star-studded reunion on her social media.

Helen, who was a runner up on the 2022 series of the show, posed alongside dance partner Gorka and fellow Strictly professional Kai Widdrington and footballer David Seaman.

Smiling as they sat around a round table, the stars appeared to be enjoying hot drinks as they posed for the snap.

Helen captioned the post: “Kids here. Fam here. Friends here. Manchester let’s go…” before tagging those in the picture.

In a second selfie, Helen, Kai and Gorka beamed for the camera, with both dance pros sporting caps and Helen standing between the two men.

She captioned the snap: “I thought we were catching up…

“They started to give me notes,” followed by a love heart eye and laughing crying emoji.

Helen and Gorka have previously made headlines due to speculation about their relationship.

She recently opened up to The Celeb Report about their supposed love triangle, involving ex Richie Myler, stating: “It’s really difficult not to be with Gorka because we’re such good friends.

“I’ve been asking him for advice a lot, so it feels like he’s here. I’d have loved for him to do it, but it’s almost like he’s in the group.

Helen’s marriage to Richie broke down last year after welcoming their third child.

Chatting about life after her split, Helen was asked whether she felt like she empowered fans, to which she replied: “The great thing about Strictly is it connects with lots of people in lots of different ways.

“I’m very lucky in my career to do jobs that do exactly that. That’s the best thing about telly – you can make telly that you’re proud of and that people connect with and share a moment with and that’s what Strictly does in spades.”
