Former Strictly Come Dancing professional Ola Jordan, 44, has floored fans with a "hot" image following the breakdown of her marriage to fellow dancer James Jordan. The dancer re-emerged in the public eye this week with a daring appearance on It Takes Two.
Return to It Takes Two after 11 years
Ola appeared on It Takes Two this week to discuss dancing, marking her return to the show 11 years after her exit. However, viewers were instantly distracted by her bold outfit, with many rushing to share similar observations about her attire.
On Monday (October 12), Ola posted on Instagram: "Back on the It Takes Two panel tonight! Always so much fun, lots of laughs and a little bit of Strictly gossip!" She also shared several photographs of herself in a plunging, short red dress, which followers felt highlighted her physique brilliantly.
Fan reactions to the red dress
Fans were quick to comment on the look. One said: "Stunningly beautiful lady in red. Great to see you back where you belong." Another added: "Stunning Ola. On fire. Love it." A third replied: "Beautiful, sexy woman," while a fourth commented: "Hot lady."
Someone else responded: "OMG I am now watching you on record. Wow, you look absolutely, stunningly perfect. Your hair, make-up, figure and that amazing red dress." Ola, who commands over 340,000 Instagram followers, appeared somewhat different from how many will recall her, sporting darker locks than before.
Marriage split confirmed
Earlier this year, reports emerged that Ola had separated from her husband and former fellow professional, James Jordan, after more than 20 years together. The couple exchanged vows in 2003 before joining the BBC One series three years later, becoming one of Strictly's most adored couples.
Upon announcing their split, the pair — who welcomed their daughter Ella in 2020 — revealed they had chosen to trial a separation "some time ago" before ultimately confirming their permanent parting. James and Ola's close friend and manager Vickie White broke the news to the Daily Star at the time, saying: "It is with great sadness that I can confirm that James and Ola began a trial separation some time ago. Their shared priority remains co-parenting their daughter, Ella, and they are committed to putting her wellbeing first. They would greatly appreciate your understanding as they navigate this difficult time."
James and Ola first got together in 1999 and had been set to mark their 23rd wedding anniversary this month.
