Risking a Fix Row
NICK Knowles has risked a fix row by revealing he's had dance training before signing up to Strictly.
Previous Dance Training Unveiled
The DIY SOS hunk will take to the ballroom floor this Saturday for his debut appearance on the BBC One show. Nick Knowles has revealed he's had previous dance training, including learning the tango earlier this year while filming a new travel series in Argentina.
Heartbreaking Reason for Stopping
Nick also shared that he grew up around dancing and even danced himself until his father told him to stop. He mentioned, "My older sister was a ballroom dancer. My middle sister had a ballet school in the Cotswolds. My youngest sister traveled the world as a dancer. As a boy, he watched them train and joined in a bit until his dad encouraged him to focus on playing rugby instead."
Feud with Another Strictly Star
Meanwhile, a feud seems to have emerged between Nick and another Strictly star, Montell Douglas. Montell, 38, did not follow Nick back on Instagram, despite him following her on the platform. This follows her decision to follow all her fellow contestants except for the home renovation show anchor.
Don't Miss the Premiere
Strictly Come Dancing launches this Saturday at 7:20 pm on BBC One and iPlayer. Be sure to tune in to see Nick Knowles and the other contestants hit the dance floor!
