Strictly star Kelvin Fletcher shamed by wife as she points out he only shaved one leg

Strictly Come Dancing star Kelvin Fletcher got shamed by his wife on social media as she pointed out he'd only shaved one leg for his debut last night.

The former Emmerdale star, 35, took to the dance floor on the BBC One show for his debut with partner Oti Mabuse.

He got into the spirit of the show by embracing the fake tan and the eye-catching costumes and even shaved his legs for the occasion.

However, his wife Elizabeth refused to let him get away with the fact that he'd only managed one and left the other hairy.

She shared a video of his pins on Instagram , writing: "He only shaved one leg!!!"

She later shared a video of the pair grabbing a coffee together, in which she asked him: "How do you feel darling/"

Kelvin replied: "Good. Can’t quite believe what happened last night.

"Did the judges watch the same dance that I did, because it didn’t feel like it.”

Elizabeth went on to add: "He’s still in shock... Yes we all saw those snake hips!”

Kelvin performed a spectacular samba which went down so well with the crowd, they gave him a standing ovation.

Not only did Kelvin wow the audience, his dance went down a storm with the judges.

As the judges handed out their marks, Bruno Tonioli said it was the best opening Samba he'd seen in 15 years.

Kelvin and his partner Oti Mabuse then topped the leaderboard by scoring a whopping 32 points, which must have been a further blow for poor Jamie Laing.

Kelvin stepped in at the last minute to replace Jamie after he hurt his foot.

He was spotted in the audience looking glum as Kelvin wowed the audience with his moves.
