The former Olympic cyclist, 32, is set to marry fiancé Scott Gardner next summer and has admitted she finds it hard getting saucy with another man.

Speaking to the Radio Times, she said: 'As lovely as Brendan is, he's not my fiancé, so dancing the tango, which involves staying away from each other as opposed to pretending to be in love, was really enjoyable for me.

'I'm not an actress, so pretending to be in love with someone for a week is actually quite hard.'

Victoria came second on the leaderboard on Saturday night's show after dancing the tango with Brendan.

She believes she is lucky Scott is so 'secure' in their relationship, adding: 'It's a good thing Scott is very secure in our relationship, so there are no issues there.

'He has been very supportive of me during Strictly, running me a bath when I get home from training with sore feet, and coming to the studio every week.'

'He also gets upset for me when a performance doesn't go as well as I was hoping it would. He was particularly concerned when I nearly strangled myself with chiffon in the rumba a couple of weeks ago.'

Victoria isn't just making her fiance proud though - her mum is also chuffed to bits with her performance on the show and is glad to finally be watching her doing something other than cycling.

'My mum loves Strictly and is so glad to see me doing something other than cycling. She used to find watching me on the track really stressful and didn't handle it very well,' she told the magazine.
