Frankie Bridge will be ‘sofa critic’ of Strictly Come Dancing


Frankie Bridge will be a "sofa critic" while watching the new series of ‘Strictly Come Dancing’.

The Saturdays singer took part in last year’s competition with professional dancer Kevin Clifton and though she has always been a fan of the programme, she thinks her own experiences will now make her watch the show in a different way.

She said: "I’ve always watched ‘Strictly’ with my family. but seeing it now is a completely different experience as I know what everyone is going through behind the scenes.

"No doubt I’m going to become a bit of a sofa critic now I have that inside knowledge – I won’t be able to stop myself picking at their dance moves and noticing when they do things wrong."

And the ‘Ego’ singer – who has 22-month-old son Parker and three-week-old Carter with husband Wayne Bridge – is feeling "jealous" of the celebrities competing for the glitterball trophy this year.

She wrote in her column for OK! magazine: "I’m already feeling so jealous of all the celebrities taking part this year, it really is such a fun show to be a part of and the backstage camaraderie between everyone was one of my favourite things about doing the series."
