Elliott Wright: ‘No way’ Mark Wright will win Strictly Come Dancing


Elliott Wright says there is "no way" Mark Wright will win ‘Strictly Come Dancing’.

The ‘TOWIE’ star believes his cousin and former cast mate Mark, 27, is already out of the running to be crowned king of the BBC One competition as he is a terrible dancer.

He told Star magazine: "He’s nervous. He openly admits he can’t dance, but he does love dressing up in sequins, so hopefully that will be enough to pull him through! I’m not a betting man, but I wouldn’t put money on him right now. He’s got no moves! There’s no way he can win."

However, Elliott, 33, is pleased the reality TV star has been paired with "hot" professional dancer Karen Hauer for the series, although he is unsure if the ‘curse of Strictly’ – which sees couples break-up after one partner appears on the show – will affect Mark’s relationship with his stunning fiancé, ex ‘Coronation Street’ star Michelle Keegan.

When asked if the couple could succumb to the ‘curse’, Elliott said: "We’ll have to wait and see. Mark and Michelle, are getting married next year, so they’re in a pretty strong position. If Strictly does break them, I’ll never go on the show, that’s for sure.

"Michelle is fine about it, but let’s be fair, Karen’s hot!"
