OLA and James Jordan today looked slimmer than ever during an appearance on ITV's Lorraine where they opened up on their struggle with weight.
The Strictly favourites shifted more than 7st which they gained between them after Ola had daughter Ella, now two.
They caused a shock when they revealed they had piled on the pounds last year and gained what they called "mum and dad bods".
Ola went from a size eight to a size 12-14, weighing in at 11st 9lb, which she says happened after she gave up training and lived on junk food.
Speaking to host Lorraine Kelly today Ola, 40, said: "I really wasn't myself. I had never felt like that.
"The turning point came when I didn't want to go out. I didn't want to dress myself. So I stayed in and drank a glass of wine."
