Will Mellor has revealed he had to stop practising for Strictly Come Dancing as he was overcome with grief for his late father.
The soaps actor is competing on the 2022 series of the dancing competition alongside professional dance partner Nancy Xu, with the pair topping the leaderboard in week one.
Will lost his father, Bill, in 2020, and previously said he wanted to appear on Strictly to help make new happy memories for his mother, the BBC series being her favourite show.
