Michelle Keegan thinks Mark Wright can take home the Strictly Come Dancing glitterball trophy.

The former soap actress is "excited" about watching her fiancé compete on the celebrity dance contest, but admits she also shares his feelings of nervousness.

She said: "When I'm watching him I feel really proud, but because I know he's a little nervous, I then start to get nervous for him.

"I'm such a 'Strictly' fan, so to get to watch it live - and to watch Mark - is really exciting.

"I'll try to watch him every Saturday if I can. Do I think he can win? I think he's got a good chance."

The 27-year-old beauty is completely smitten with the former 'The Only Way is Essex' star and says he is her "best friend" first and foremost.

She told Closer magazine: "Mark doesn;t buy me presents for the sake of it, but he is just perfect. He is my best friend - we're like best mates."

At the start of this month, the couple marked the one-year anniversary of their engagement with a date day in London - but Michelle admits it was an accidental celebration.

She said: "We've been so busy and haven't had much time so we just spent a whole day together. We went shopping in Harrods, then for a nice meal that night and we sat there and realised we had been engaged for a year that day."
