John Whaite reveals Strictly ‘anxiety’
John and Johannes are big favourites on the show.
However, baker John recently shared that he initially felt “anxious” before making history on the programme.
He told the December issue of Attitude magazine: “I think as gay people, we have to choose the places we go to.
“We have to choose the people we speak to, who we even look at, because we have been conditioned to kind of expect hate and flack.
“So honestly, I was quite anxious about it.”
