Majella O'Donnell has said that she's "delighted" that her husband Daniel O'Donnell has been paired with Kristina Rihanoff on Strictly Come Dancing.
Majella met the professional dancer and choreographer ahead of the launch show on Saturday (September 5), and only had good words to say about her.
She said: "I found her to be a lovely girl and I'm delighted that she's working with Daniel because she's a fantastic choreographer who'll bring the best out in him."
Rihanoff has previously dated two of her Strictly partners. She was in a relationship with Joe Calzaghe, the former Welsh professional boxer, from 2009 to 2013, and is now believed to be dating rugby player Ben Cohen, who she met on the show in 2013.
However, Majella is not worried about her husband being paired with Rihanoff, saying: "As far as I know, Kristina is very happy in her current relationship as we are in ours."
Strictly Come Dancing returns to BBC One on Friday, September 25 and Saturday, September 26 when the celebrities will dance with their pro partners for the first time.
