Fiona Phillips, the GMTV presenter, has been warned by her husband not to get involved with Strictly Come Dancing star Brendan Cole.
Martin Frizzell, who is an editor on the same programme as his wife, initially encouraged her to do the realitry celebrity dancing show, and she was reluctant.
But he had one warning, saying: "It'll be fine as long as they don't give you that sh**ger Brendan."
So imagine Martin's horror when Fiona was paired up with, yes you've guessed it, the man himself.
Brendan famously had an affair with dance partner Natasha Kaplinsky when they both featured in a previous series of Strictly Come Dancing.
But Fiona defended the dance expert, telling the Daily Star: "Brendan's much maligned, bless him.
"He is great company, a lovely man. We are getting on really well but I'm very happily married, thank you very much."
