Nicky sits down with professional dancer and Strictly Come Dancing star Kai Widdrington for an in-depth chat about his journey from a football family to the ballroom floor. Kai opens up about choosing dance over football, becoming a world champion as a teenager, and the moment Britain’s Got Talent changed his path. From Dancing with the Stars in Ireland to the pressure, pain and glamour of Strictly, Kai shares what it really takes to perform at the highest level and keep dancing through it all.
