Kelvin Fletcher is delighting fans with his weekly Strictly performances, alongside his dance partner Oti Mabuse. The former Emmerdale actor, who is married to Eliza Marsland and dad to their two children Marnie, three, and 10-month-old Milo, has won an army of fans thanks to his warm persona and that impressive physique! The star was a last-minute replacement for Jamie Laing on Strictly, who was forced to pull out of the competition due to a foot injury. Lucky for us, we're treated to Kelvin's fabulous moved every week. We often hear celebs' weight loss stories from the hit TV show, and Kelvin is another star toning up through dance.
In a new interview with GQ Magazine, the star revealed that he has lost 11lbs even though he eats 3,000 calories a day. "I'll get up at 5-5.30 in the morning. Normally I wouldn't be training that early, I'd be in at 7am, but you do what you have to do," he explained.
