LOVE Island’s Zara McDermott is nervous about her cha-cha-chances next Saturday with pro Graziano Di Prima.
He teased her by saying: “It is going to be exotic, Latin and is the cha-cha-cha, darling.”
Zara, 26, said: “I think I’m probably the most nervous I’ve been in my life.”
Graziano reassured her, saying: “The sky is the limit. Be positive…”
Zara was dumped from the Love Island villa just 10 days after she entered as a bombshell in 2018.

After feeling like the “least successful person” from her Love Island year, Zara’s career has since gone from strength to strength – and continues to climb.
“It was a really proud moment for me,” she says.
“That feeling of being the first-ever Love Islander to do Strictly.
“I wasn’t in the show for very long, and I feel like my career has definitely moved on.
“Going on Strictly has made me realise how far I’ve come from those days in Love Island.
“When I got dumped from the island, I was quite shocked.
“I thought I would be in there the whole time.
“When I came out, I definitely felt inferior to the other girls who were landing huge fashion deals.
“I felt really gutted about how my journey had gone.”
