Kaye Adams makes 'honest' Strictly admission on ITV's Loose Women

The Strictly Come Dancing star Kaye Adams has admitted that her experience on the BBC show did not quite live up to her expectations. The Loose Women panellist told her fellow presenters that she had hoped that taking part in the competition would have "created a new me".

The 2022 series eventually saw Hamza Yassin being crowned winner. But Kaye and her partner Kai Widdrington became the first couple to be eliminated from the show this year, Chronicle Live reports.

Kaye was one of the panellists appearing on Loose Women on Friday, December 30, when the presenters were each asked to reflect on their last 12 months. She came close to saying that she had regretted signing up for Strictly Come Dancing.

After being asked by Denise Welch: "If you could go back to the start of the year, what would you tell that Kaye?" Kaye replied: "I'd say Kaye 'you can't dance, don't do it'," as her co-stars all assured her that she could.

Kaye added: "What I told myself when I made the decision to do it was 'Kaye you've got to put yourself outside your comfort zone,' because you hear that's good for you. Now I maybe think it's called a comfort zone for a reason."

She then candidly admitted: "I had hoped it would create a new me and it didn't, so maybe I just have to be happy with the old me" before Denise told her: "But we don't want a new you."
