Molly Rainford finished sixth in BBC’s Strictly Come Dancing last year with her partner Carlos Gu and she also found love on the show with fellow contestant Tyler West
Molly Rainford is giving fellow EastEnder Bobby Brazier secret dance lessons ahead of his stint on Strictly.
Molly, 22, who took part in the BBC ballroom show last year, made her Albert Square debut in June alongside Colin Salmon, Harriet Thorpe and Francesca Henry. And in an exclusive interview, she says she is tipping the 20-year-old actor for Strictly Come Dancing glory â now that she’s taught him the correct frame for ballroom dancing.
Molly, who finished sixth with her pro partner Carlos Gu last year, said: “I had no idea Bobby was going for Strictly but when I found out, straight away I was showing him the frame. “I joked to him, âHow about we practise together and then you say I taught you everything you know’. So that’s what’s happening â though of course his pro partner may say different.
“My advice to him was just to enjoy it and take it all in, and to expect it to be tougher than you thought. “The work that goes in is much more than I expected⦠the routine you perform on Saturday definitely doesn’t look like that on Monday. “So I said to him, âYou will have to take it a bit seriously at times. If you want Shirley to notice the technique, you have to give it some welly.’
