Ola Jordan has been supported by her followers after she took to social media with a photo of herself and her husband which left her 'horrified'. The former Strictly Come Dancing star and her dancer husband James Jordan welcomed daughter Ella through IVF in 2020.
The 39-year-old dancer, who left the BBC One dance contest in 2015, is used to sustaining an athletic figure in her job but admitted her dismay at the 'mum and dad bod' seen in her latest photo taken of her alongside her other half. It showed the pair stood by a pool, with Ola wearing a pink bikini.
James, meanwhile, went topless, showing off his arm of tattoos, and donned a pair of beige shorts. After posing for the snap, Ola was clearly shocked by the way her and her husband of 19 years looked.
"Hi guys I wasn't going to post this picture but I've decided to because I'm horrified and so disappointed with myself and by posting it I'm hoping it will help motivate me to do something about it," she wrote to her followers alongside the couple photo. "Our friend took this snap of us yesterday trying to stay cool by the pool but OMG... it was a total shock to say the least! When did we get 'mum and dad bods'?"
She continued: "We know we're not in our best Strictly shape but hey that's what happens when you stop dancing for hours every day and have a baby (I just want to know James’ excuse). Stay cool everyone. I think I need to avoid the ice cream for a while! Couples That Eat Together Stay Together."
Ola's celebrity followers were soon hitting the comments section to leave their messages. Former Geordie Shore star Charlotte Crosby wrote: "You both still look bloody amazing! Hate to read you put yourself down! You are stunning Ola! And both amazing people and parents."
Former Strictly It Takes Two presenter and BBC Radio 2 star Zoe Ball said: "Love you two." While reality star Charlotte Dawson simply replied: " Beautiful." Meanwhile, e x-Love Island contestant Laura Anderson added: "Stunning as always. Ola you were always my Strictly inspo watching for years, so beautiful and talented and trust me you still are, enjoy your food, booze and family time. It's way more fun than keeping up a six pack let's be honest."
Fans were also showing their support to Ola and were not short of words of encouragement to share. @scarlettwanderer commented: "Omg stop don’t say horrified you guys are gorgeous!! And well done for sharing this beautiful photo of normal bodies thank you."
