October 10, 2022 - 13:13 BST Emmy Griffiths Strictly star Will Mellor has opened up about why he asked permission from his family before agreeing to take part in Strictly Come Dancing - and we definitely understand why it was important! Chatting to HELLO! ahead of the launch, the Two Pints of Lager actor admitted that he didn’t want to 'mortify' his two children - Renee, 14, and Jayden, 18 - by joining the show, explaining:"I had to tell my children to make sure they weren't...
He added:"Even though we're in front of the camera, your family all go on the journey with us, it's exciting for all our family. We might be doing the dancing but the family's going on the journey with us."Despite his reservations, it sounds like his family is hugely supportive, particularly his sisters! He joked:"Great, excited, screaming my sisters were! I spoke to my mum last night and she was like, ‘I just can't wait. I'm so looking forward to it.
He added:"It's my mum's favourite show and she's had a terrible time with it. I just thought we need some positivity and so honestly the real reason is that. I just thought yeah I'm gonna get on this journey. I'm loving it already." Like this story?
