Gemma Atkinson has given the thumbs up to Gorka Marquez's partnership with Helen Skelton as the 2022 Strictly Come Dancing. competition kicked off.
The smash hit BBC One dance contest is back as we saw the 15 celebrity contestants discover the professional partners they will be working with.
Gorka and the Countryfile host will be strutting their stuff together - and Gemma is clearly already a big fan.
The Spanish dancer's partner has clearly got the seal of approval from fiancee actress, 37, and their daughter, Mia.
Taking to Instagram following the big reveal, Gemma shared a photo of the newly partnered pair and kept it simple as told her millions of followers: "Dream team!"
Former Blue Peter presenter Helen had warned she needed a partner who was “fun” and “patient” and could understand a northern accent and so was delighted to be paired with Gorka.
Gorka also seemed pretty chuffed to be dancing with Helen as he shared a selfie of the two of them in the famous ballroom. "Finally the secret is over. So excited to be dancing with @helenskelton for this Series.."
He went on: "Already having an absolutely blast and I can’t wait for you to watch our first dance. "LET’S GO PARTNER!!!"
Devoted Gemma was the first to show her support for her man and his new dance partner. "So excited for you both!!! Let’s Gooooo!!" she posted.
Helen last week admitted that allowing her dance partner into her personal space could prove to be difficult.
She said recently: "Yesterday when we were getting close, my partner was like 'every time I get close to you, you jump away'."
"Things like that are what you have to get used to - I think that'll be the challenge."
Prior to the Strictly launch show going to air, Gemma teased who Gorka's partner could be.
After a rough night being woken by her dog who had suffered a bit of a smelly accident, her husband-to-be decided to make her morning a bit easier by setting out her coffee cup alongside her other morning essentials alongside a cute note.
"I love you!! Have a nice day," the message read as Gemma could be heard in a video on her Instagram Story saying: "Bless you, Gorks," before sharing another written message. She typed over the short clip: "Bless him. He's gone dancing! His partner is just so wonderful and has already been SO kind to myself & Mia."
