The show’s ‘Mr Outspoken’ tells us about his new tour and explains why he just can’t keep quiet
As the professional dancer not afraid to stand his ground with the Strictly Come Dancing judges, Brendan Cole is the person we’d want on our side. Honest and funny, he’s wowed us since the show began back in 2004. now he’s raring to go with his own nationwide tour – Brendan Cole: All Night Long. The popular performer, 41, lives in Buckinghamshire with his wife Zoe, 36, and their five-year-old, aurelia. The couple are expecting their second child in February. Here, Brendan lifts the lid on his favourite dance partners and his talented daughter.
‘Some people love the fact that I speak my mind and some hate it. You’re never going to please everybody – I’m very much Marmite. I’m quite happy to have critique, but I don’t necessarily like critique unless it’s constructive. If it’s just for the sake of it then I find it infuriating and I’m the one who will speak his mind on the show. If I don’t feel something is right, I have to say so. I won’t always be right – I hold my hands up when I’m wrong – but I’m happy to say that with most of the arguing I did on this series, I was justified in doing so.’
