Last night was the first time Caroline Flack had been out since she started training for Strictly Come Dancing 12 weeks ago. And although she’s given up the booze, she tells us she’s been eating more junk food.
Speaking to us at the Cosmopolitan Ultimate Women Awards with Baileys, Caroline said: “I’ve got more bruises than usual and my body shape has changed slightly. I haven’t lost weight because I’ve been using it as an excuse to eat more food. I’m fuelling up on burgers – I’m eating worse food than I was but only because I probably can.”
She says she’s not worried about how far she gets in the dancing contest, adding: “Of course it would be really lovely to get to the final but everyone’s so good, your expectations just have to be, ‘What will happen, will happen’. I’m not a very competitive person. I’ve not been doing extra training. I’ve given up alcohol a little bit, but only because it makes me work better the next day because I’m not very good on a hangover – that’s the first thing I’m going to do when I leave the competition is to have a right old knees up.”
And it will definitely be a knees up if Caroline’s wearing her signature shorts!
