OLA Jordan has revealed how her and husband James' incredible seven stone weight loss has had a BIG effect on their sex life - in more ways than one.
The former Strictly pros, who competed on the BBC ballroom show from 2006 to 2015, saw their bedroom activity slump to an all-time low after being classed as "obese”.

The stunning dancer, 40, has cheekily opened up about how her husband's shrinking waistline has actually boosted the appearance of what he's packing in his underpants.
In an exclusive interview with The Sun, she said: "Well, let's face it. It's much more pleasant nowadays, isn't it? The bellies don't jiggle as much as they used to."
From tongue scraping to saying no, here are 12 health trends to try in 2023Bursting into a fit of giggles before dropping the X-rated bombshell, Ola continued, "He looks bigger now!" to which a rosy-faced James, 45, quipped, "She's talking about my tattoos."
The passion in their romance has reached such a high that they're even considering renewing their vows.
With a no-expense-spared Vegas getaway booked later this year to mark their 20th wedding anniversary, the parents to three-year-old Ella love the idea of getting hitched once again by an Elvis impersonator.
The Kent-native said, "You never know where you're gonna end up after a few drinks. We used to go there loads before Ella was born and we like letting our hair down every now and again.
"We might end up somewhere saying, "I do,"' he confessed while Ola chimed in, "At the Elvis chapel!"
Ola is now 8st 3lb and back in her size 8 clothes, and James is down to 11st 6lb, after they lost a combined 7st 6lb,
But last July, they left their Instagram followers open-mouthed when they shared snaps showing their combined 61/2st weight gain.
Ola, then 11st 9lb and a size 12-14, posted a filter-free photograph of herself and 15st 6lb James displaying what she described as their “mum and dad bods”.
James explained, "We looked at that picture and Ola posted it because she was so disappointed with where we'd got to.
"I think we forgot ourselves sometimes because we were just enjoying life and a lot of things were happening."
I want my girlfriend to try dirty talk but she won't do itThe Polish dancer added, "Obviously we had Ella, who's already three years old. I started dressing differently, I was hiding my weight gain.
"I was buying different clothes because I wasn't comfortable in what I used to wear, so then I didn't enjoy shopping anymore. I just was buying clothes because I needed a pair of trousers or a top. I wasn't buying clothes to dress up anymore.
"Then I thought to myself, 'I've got to do something about this.'"
Sticking to her word, the pair devised their very own fitness programme Dance Shred, which includes 15 minutes of fun-and-easy dance moves, and a diet plan based on the science of calorie deficit.
Now releasing a four-week Salsa challenge, James explained: "It's designed really to help people get in shape for last minute holidays, whether they've got some social events, be it a wedding or party or something that they want to go to.
"They want to tone up a bit, shed a few pounds. Nearly everyone loves the salsa. It's a great feeling, dancing, and this time we've done it slightly differently to all the other ones that we've done.
"It's much more high intensity, it's the proper burn. And it was great fun doing it. The feedback already has been fantastic.
"We have a VIP section on Dance Shred now where subscribers get automatic access to any new content that we put on.
"The VIPs are loving it because it doesn't actually cost them any more money. They get all that free. We enjoy doing it and we enjoy putting it together as well. Dance Shred really for us is unlimited. We can change it up as much as we want."
