Rosie, who is mother to Robin, six, and Rafe, 23 months, admitted that Christmas can be “overwhelming” as a mother, but said Strictly helped her “enjoy” the festive season.
She said: ‘I feel really good about the show. It’s so positive and such a lovely atmosphere! Learning the routine has been so much fun and there is such a strong festive feeling throughout!
“Being a mother of two children can be quite difficult and overwhelming, but doing this has really helped me enjoy this time of year so much.”
Competition: They will fight to be crowned Christmas Champions alongside Larry Lamb, George Webster, Nicola Roberts and Alexandra Mardell.
Neil then gushed about his dance partner, saying, ‘Rosie is a dream. She has been brilliant and from day one she has picked up on everything very quickly.
Although Neil praised her talent, Rosie said she was shocked by how “exhausting” the dance training was and admitted she had to apologize to her husband Chris for not sympathizing with him when he did the show in 2019.
“The training has been good, but I am surprised at how exhausting it is and how difficult the dance is. All the other couples’ dances look very polished and they are doing a good job,” she said.
“You’re definitely a bit naive and you’re like ‘oh, that’s easy’, but I had to apologize to Chris!
Judges: Rosie admitted that she is eager to impress Craig Revel Horwood (pictured with Motsi Mabuse, Shirley Ballas and Anton Du Beke) with her dancing talents.
‘My husband did Strictly in 2019 and I didn’t like him at all. I told him that he was overreacting and that I had to apologize because now was my time!’
Rosie and Neil also talked about who they think is their biggest competition for the 2022 Christmas special, to which they both said George Webster.
‘We haven’t seen anyone but George dance yet [Webster] he’s a superstar,’ said Rosie.
While Neil added: “I’ve heard it’s good, and I’ve heard it ends in the splits!”
Hard: Rosie said she was shocked by how “grueling” the workout is and admitted she apologized to husband Chris Ramsey for not sympathizing with him when he did the show in 2019
Rosie continued: “I think George is our biggest competition, he just oozes brilliance, he’s a really nice guy.” But yeah, I think they’re all pretty good to be fair.
Rosie also admitted that she is keen to impress Craig Revel Horwood with her dancing talent, saying that they are determined to have him “on their side”.
However, Rosie went on to say that taking part in the Christmas special has been ‘a bit of fun’, adding: ‘If it was the actual competition, I’d be worried!’
Neil urged Rosie to get her husband Chris involved in her new dance skills, saying that he wants to see them throw a dance show together.
