Stacey Dooley: ‘You telling me off?’ Strictly star’s awkward moment with Kevin Clifton
Strictly Come Dancing winner Stacey Dooley, 32, chatted about the upcoming live tour in an interview on Kevin Clifton’s podcast. The 37-year-old and the former BBC contestant confirmed their relationship months after they won the dance competition last year.
During the podcast, the couple seemingly appeared to suffer an on-air blunder, after Stacey asked to leave mid-show because she wanted to use the toilet.
As the dancing duo discussed all things Strictly, talk turned to last year’s contestant Alex Scott, 35, and her dance partner Neil Jones, 37.
Kevin spilled: “Do you know what I liked about Alex? She was a bit like you, she had that…”
As the Grimsby-born performer trailed off, Stacey interjected: “She’s going into the unknown. This isn’t her scene at all. It’s not her world.”

The Latin champion agreed before adding: “But yes, also when things happen…”
Stacey cheekily interrupted Kevin’s train of thought again, as she asked to use the toilet during the podcast.
“I need a wee,” she said. “Can I go for a wee? You know what? Go on, I’ll wait.”
Kevin lightheartedly replied: “We’re nearly done,” as his girlfriend apologised for the awkward moment during the show.
The dancer went onto explain how Strictly tends to take over the contestant’s world because of the all-consuming nature of the BBC show.
He remarked: “You’re training all week. You’re in the studio all hours of the day until the evening. And then you wake up the next day and do the same.
“Then you’re in Elstree. You’ll do It Takes Two. All you see is Strictly.”
Prior to this moment, Stacey joked her beau was “telling her off” after she put her hand over the microphone while chatting on the podcast.

It comes after the documentary-maker told Kevin she was meant to get in contact with football pundit Alex before heading to Birmingham for the Strictly Come Dancing Live tour.
Stacey commented: “Alex is working today. She told me she’s on the television. This is really interesting for your listeners. But I must let her know what train I’m on.”
She added: “Are you telling me off because I was leaning over?”
Kevin giggled at Stacey’s remark, as he replied: “No. Just don’t cover your microphone.”
