How does she stay in shape?
Before signing up for the show, Emma used social media to give a glimpse of her active lifestyle.
Earlier this year, she joined her co-stars as they ran the London Marathon and had a gruelling training schedule for this.
In one post shortly before the marathon, she wrote: “Here she is……. Not nervous.. no… not one bit….”
Emma also used Instagram to explain she changed her diet plan and began focusing on healthy foods.
The actress ditched unhealthy snacks and instead began preparing homemade lunches to power her through training.
As the live shows approached, she shared a picture of a healthy chicken salad.
She wrote: “5 days of healthy packed lunches prepped by me this morning! ALL CHANGE! #bartonsballchange No more cheeky pasties & pork pies! Ready for a busy filming & dancing week!”
