But this isn’t the only struggle Kaye’s faced on set it seems. The 59 year-old took to Twitter to open up about how she ‘struggled to sleep’ following the first day of rehearsals.

Tweeting out to her 86,000 followers, Kaye wrote: “Struggled to sleep last night after the first day of @bbcstrictly strictly rehearsals. Tried to count sheep but couldn’t get past 5,6,7,8.”

Alongside sending their well-wishes to the star, many fans deciphered that Kaye’s cryptic tweet could be hinting at her dancing to ‘5,6,7,8’ – the hit song by pop group Steps.
