Over the past few weeks, James and Ola have been spending lots of time with his parents. In their Strictly Parenting column, James recently opened up about how his dad, Allan, has been doing. "He's doing okay," the former Strictly pro said. "He's such a positive person. My mum says she can tell he's tired but he's out in the garden doing bits.

"The other day he rang me and we drove to a builder's merchant because he wanted to get some stone for the garden. I'm going round on Friday with a friend of mine and we're going to dig out some of the garden for him. He's one of these people who are always doing something.
"It's tough because he's having his chemo every day and radiotherapy five days a week for another six weeks, and that alone is a stressful thing to be going through. But then he comes home and he'll go out in the garden and do stuff. He's put in a concrete base for my mum's washing line." Ola agreed, saying: "He's really keeping himself busy."
