Adam Thomas has already started bickering with his wife over his lack of dance experience, after he was revealed as the first celebrity contestant of Strictly Come Dancing 2023.<\/p>\n
The Waterloo Road star, who has been married to Caroline Daly since 2017, revealed that his wife is also a dance teacher but hasn’t given him any words of advice.<\/p>\n
Speaking to The Sun, he said: “She\u2019s a dance teacher. But no, she\u2019s not given me any tips.<\/p>\n
“We literally had this argument the other day because I was like, \u2018Why have you not taught me how to dance after all these years I\u2019ve been with you?’<\/p>\n
“And she was like, \u2018Well, you\u2019ve never taught me how to act.'”<\/p>\n

Magazine, he recalled: “My kids are great dancers so they’ve been teaching me and showing me a few things, my son’s nine this week, Elsie\u2019s five, so they’re going to be watching it and they’re huge fans of the show already.<\/p>\n “We’re going on this journey, but it’s not just us, it’s our family as well.<\/p>\n “They’ll be watching us every night, cheering us on, that’s what it’s about for me.”<\/p>\n![](\"https:\/\/cdn.images.express.co.uk\/img\/dynamic\/79\/590x\/secondary\/4957278.jpg?r=1694599758269\")
