The 38-year-old presenter can't believe how much her figure has changed with the intensive training on the show so has told her husband she wants to try a different vacation this winter.

She said: "My husband and I are planning to go away at Christmas for a holiday and we were talking about doing something outdoorsy, like snowboarding.

"I'm not a beach person but I told him this week that I wanted to go on a beach holiday - I joked I won't have a body like this for much longer and I said we should go somewhere I can show it off.

"I also think I'm going to be very tired [after 'Strictly']. He is over the moon!"

The 'Countryfile' host is amazed at how well she and her dance partner Gleb Savchenko get along and couldn't have asked for a better partner.

She told Closer magazine: "It's really spooky how well we get on.

"I've never had another relationship in my life like it.

"Everything is so exposed that Gleb knows when I am in a bad mood. He knows when I am finding it hard.

"He looks at my body language and gets it all. It is incredible. He is a great teacher."
