Eamonn Holmes makes hilariously awkward dig at Kevin Clifton's Strictly romps

Eamonn Holmes made an incredibly awkward dig at Kevin Clifton's notorious Strictly Come Dancing romps live on This Morning today.

The pro dancer, 36, appeared on the ITV daytime programme today to reveal his "big announcement" alongside sister, 35.

The siblings revealed that they would be on tour with one another for the first time.

Beforehand, however, they spoke about growing up together with their family, who had a long history of dancing.

Kevin and Joanne previously used to dance with one another when they were children, but began feeling awkward about it when they turned 14.

He said: "When we were teenagers we were thinking, 'Oh this is starting to feel wrong all of a sudden'."

"I put a hand on his face and I was like, ugh," Joanne quipped, making a face.

"Yeah but we danced together from when we were about six years old or something," Kevin said.

Eamonn then joked: "Don't worry, Joanne. He made up for lost time, all that touching, feeling."

Kevin was married to third wife Karen, who is also a pro dancer on Strictly. However their marriage broke down at the end of 2017 after rumours their relationship was on the rocks.

This year he began dating his Strictly 2018 partner Stacey Dooley, who he danced to victory with and won the glitterball.

Ruth probed him about the romance today and he replied: "Yes, all good, yes,’ before looking over at his sister Joanne, to which he teased: ‘Look at this, straight into the personal life."

*This Morning airs weekdays at 10.30am on ITV
