Professional dancer Camilla Dallerup will be joining GMTV in the New Year and encouraging women to put on their ladies fitness wear and lose the weight they put on over Christmas.

Dallerup, who won Strictly Come Dancinglast year with actor Tom Chambers, is one of the celebrities appearing on this year's series of I'm a Celebrity, Get me Out of Here!

The 35-year-old will replace Mr Motivator on ITV's GMTV for four weeks from January 4th.

Speaking to GMTV, Dallerup said: "I'm really looking forward to getting the country dancing - it's good for the body and mind, makes you laugh, lifts your spirits and afterwards you realise you've had a workout."

The NHS recommends dancing as a good way of keeping fit. It said that putting on comfortable ladies fitness wear and attending organised dance classes provides women with support and goals, as well as a chance to make new friends. ADNFCR-2569-ID-19459113-ADNFCR
