Last month, the mum of two thrilled her 802k Instagram followers with a sneak peek into her brand-new wardrobe for the 20th series of the hit show. We saw bright bodycon Victoria Beckham couture, feathers and sequins!

Tess has had a whale of a time in her wardrobe fittings leading up to Friday evenings series premiere. She captioned one of her Instagram posts: "Strictly season has begun! …and so has the first fitting! Catch me in sparkles from now until 2023", with a winky face emoji.
