Mark, meanwhile, revealed that he had angered Michelle after he broke with a family tradition.
He confessed: “My wife’s family are from the north and I’m from the south so we have to switch it up but once, a couple of years ago, her mum and her stepdad came down.
“This year we are having all of them, and this is why I’m scared – because when it happened a couple of years ago with just two of them, we broke the family tradition, and it was my fault.
– the Strictly Come Dancing Christmas Special is on BBC One at 4.40pm on Christmas Day
