Is it the Strictly curse again ?

I've never liked her much - preferred Sian on Breakfast. Never watched Strictly so can't comment on that but perhaps some people need to realise that they can't do or have 'everything' - something has to give.

Don´t think the fact that they live in London & she works in Manchester 3 days a week, leaving him with 3 boys to cope with has helped matters. Apparently she commutes. She must be exhausted.
Personally I don´t like her, especially since Strictly. She´s too full of her own self importance.
Still a shame to see a family falling apart though.

Yes I read that. I think you have to have a strong marriage and also to be able to balance out the rehearsing and dancing with your home life, not make your partner feel pushed out, to get through Strictly without problems. I would hope though that they had discussed all the pros and cons beforehand. Maybe he was not prepared as to how it would take over her life, or maybe she just took his willingness to accept her continued absences for granted.

Is she on the Strictly tour? Maybe it is not the competition but the tour that is the problem.
