Speaking to hosts Jamie Laing and Francis Boulle, who both rose to fame on the hit E4 show Made In Chelsea, she explained: "What I didn't like was being removed from everybody and having to spend 12 hours a day with this one person. "It did not become about the dancing.
I just wanted to dance. "I did not want to play the game of doing red carpets with your dance partner and stuff like that, which a lot of people thought you should be doing.
