told the Mirror : “We went to Tabasco where a Hispanic ritual is performed. You go through portals in what looks like a clay igloo. “It’s a wholly spiritual experience.
We both felt really light and we felt new again. It’s like you’re reborn. So you kind of let go of, you know, any grudges, you’re holding… any negativity, any preconceived ideas that kind of hold you back.
”Fleur also believes the ritual helped her deal with her losing her father. Earlier this week, she broke down in tears on ITV show Lorraine after talking about her dad, Malcolm. The Strictly superfan passed away in 2020 after suffering a heart attack.
Fleur said: “Losing my father, that was really heavy. And I think in the pandemic, you couldn’t really deal with that properly because that was the way life was. “A lot of that had been weighing on me… I felt like I’d let a lot of that go.
So it was a really positive experience. ”Strictly has seen a string of couples split after one partner competed on the show. In 2018, Stacey Dooley, 35, dumped personal trainer Sam Tucknott, then went public with dance partner Kevin Clifton, 39.
That same year, comic Seann Walsh, 36, broke up with his actress girlfriend Rebecca Humphries, 34, after he was pictured kissing his dance partner Katya Jones, 33. In 2013, Countdown star Rachel Riley, 36, also split from Jamie Gilbert, her husband of 15 months, during her time on Strictly. Less than a year later, the Countdown star announced she was dating her Strictly partner Pasha Kovalev, 42.
