Gorka Marquez
"When you get a picture taken of you it can make you look a lot closer than you actually are," the Strictly Come Dancing star insisted
During Saffron Barker's interview with Claudia Winkleman, viewers couldn't help but notice the unusual way Gorka was entertaining himself.
But they won't be the only couple on the Strictly dance floor this festive season.
"You’re sure you used to talk about other things, but every discussion comes back to funny little toes or adorable gurgling noises."
The dancer, who has just become a father with girlfriend Gemma Atkinson, won't receive a celebrity partner this year.
The former Strictly star is actually cracking down on sites who have taken the snaps without permission.
The Strictly Come Dancing pair welcomed their baby daughter Mia into the world earlier this month.
“Being a new mum can be overwhelming and you can never win with your choices.”
Strictly stars poured in with messages of congratulations on social media.
In an Instagram post, Gemma said her daughter "certainly made an entrance”.
