Kevin Clifton addresses 'very awkward' time with Strictly co-stars after double rejection

“They both got a, ‘Yes’ from Strictly and I got a ‘No’.”

Explaining the awkward reaction to his rejection, he went on to say: “We all went into work and they were being, sort of, not wanting to talk about it too much because they didn’t want to upset me, it was all very awkward.”

Despite being rejected from the show for a second time, Kevin got a last minute call from producers ahead of the 2013 series, who asked him if he wanted to join.

He added: “Literally a few days before the Strictly series started, I had been told it was a no, but another potential place might open up because they were maybe going to go up to 15 celebs that year instead of 14.
