Vicky Pattison Opens Up About Strictly Anxiety
Women's Health cover star Vicky Pattison shares her pre-show nerves about Strictly Come Dancing.
When Vicky got the call to join the show, it felt like a dream come true, but now she's feeling out of her comfort zone.
'It was a complete no-brainer,' she said. 'But now I’m in the midst of it – balls deep – I’m regretting absolutely everything. I’m really out of my comfort zone.'
Gemma Atkinson, a former Strictly contestant, offered Vicky some advice to calm her nerves.
'You’ve got to think,' she told Vicky, 'for three minutes every Saturday night, you’re going to have the best time on the dancefloor. Dancing with the wonderful Kai – you’re in safe hands, and you won’t get the opportunity again.'
Vicky is trying to take Gemma's advice to heart and focus on enjoying the experience.
