Strictly Come Dancing judge Craig Revel Horwood has opened up on being involved with a 43-year-old man when he was only 17.
The dancing star, 55, discussed the relationship that involved him swapping sex with the older man, who he names Mr.X, in return for his dance college fees being paid.
He also dished on being gifted a six-week world tour by the man and despite being a teenager at the time, Craig is adamant that he 'knew what he was doing'.
The Australian native told Event magazine: "It was a sugar daddy sort of thing. I knew exactly what I was doing."
Dance guru Craig is now in a happy relationship boyfriend Jonathan Myring, who is 22-years his junior, and the pair recently revealed that they plan on growing their family in an interview with Mirror Online.
Discussing adoption, told: “I think it’s a really good idea. Friends have done it and there are a lot of kids out there that need love and a secure home. I’d adopt an older child, not a baby.”
Jonathan agreed, as he shared: “I’d love to adopt. I’d like two in one go, hopefully siblings. Craig and I are on the same page.”
The couple, who have been together for nearly two years, also have plans to tie the knot.
Judge Craig shared: “All our friends are asking, ‘Are you going to get married?’ But I’m far too busy next year.
“One day though – Jonathan is my soulmate, he’s the man I want to be with for the rest of my life.”
Craig met Jonathan on Tinder while he was on the Strictly Live Tour in Nottingham and they make their relationship work by spending as much time together as possible.
Gardener Jonathan works for Craig on their acres of land and accompanies him to Australia, where Craig up, for months at a time.
