Strictly Come Dancing winner Kelvin Fletcher is enjoying lockdown life with his family as he admitted it has been an ‘intense five months’.
The Emmerdale actor took the crown with dancing professional Oti Mabuse earlier this year.
At the time, the duo were hit with rumoured allegations about the closeness of their relationship, claims which they have both vehemently denied.
And since the UK has gone into lockdown, the actor has been making the most of it as he has been relaxing with his wife Liz Marsland and their two children.
Speaking about the past few months, he explained: ‘After an intense four or five months of regular family life being disrupted, to be at the other end of the spectrum, where I’m constantly at home, in a weird way, it couldn’t have come at a better time for me and Liz, and for the kids.
‘We look back on the whole Strictly experience fondly, one we experienced as a family together.’
‘We’ve been together for many years and we’re so happy with each other, in our little bubble,’ he added to Hello! magazine.
Kelvin and his wife met at school, and have known each other since they were eight years old, with the Andy Sugden actor confessing she was actually his first kiss.
Speaking about their romance on Strictly, he told viewers they drifted apart for a while when she went to university, but got back in touch by chance, during a night out.
‘I’m in a random bar in Manchester and who of all people appears in the crowd dancing towards me,’ he revealed in a VT.
They have been inseparable ever since, tying the knot in 2015.
The couple said their ‘I dos’ in a secret ceremony, at the super swanky One Mayfair, exactly a year after he popped the question.
They welcomed daughter Marnie the following year, before adding to their family once more in 2018 with little Milo.
