The Australian dancer explained: "Fun little fact for you all: I got this skirt the morning of my Strictly Come Dancing interview.

"I got changed in the shopping centre toilet into my new outfit and went over for my interview. So now I class this skirt as my lucky skirt. Obvs I didn’t wear it with this top."
