You can always rely on James and Ola Jordan to be outspoken and honest. Last summer, after a snap of the former Strictly dancers showing off their “mum and dad bods” went viral, they revealed they’d “let themselves go” since leaving the BBC show.
Posing in her swimwear, Ola – who at 5ft 3in weighed almost 12 stone – admitted she was feeling upset that she’d let her health slip.
“I wasn’t going to post this picture but I’ve decided to because I’m horrified and so disappointed with myself; by posting it, I’m hoping it will help motivate me to do something about it,” she wrote. “Our friend took this snap of us yesterday trying to stay cool by the pool but OMG… it was a total shock to say the least! When did we get ‘mum and dad bods’?”
The star went on to say that motherhood and being less active had taken its toll, adding, “That’s what happens when you stop dancing for hours every day and have a baby (I just want to know James’s excuse).”
James then confessed he prefers his wife “smaller”, a remark which – unsurprisingly – caused a backlash online. But it was the wake-up call they both needed – especially in light of their plans to try for another baby.
Combining their love of health and fitness, the couple – who welcomed daughter Ella, two, via IVF in 2020 – have since lost more than five-and-a-half stone between them. And they say they’re well on their way to feeling healthier than ever.
