Judy Murray can’t stop laughing at Strictly Come Dancing training


Judy Murray can’t stop laughing during her ‘Strictly Come Dancing’ training.

The tennis coach – who is mother to tennis stars Andy and Jamie Murray – has revealed she’s having a great time

rehearsing for the BBC One celebrity dance contest but confessed she’s finding it hard to take her professional dance partner seriously.

Referring to Anton du Beke as "amazing", she told HELLO!: "He’s absolutely fantastic. He’s so patient and he makes me giggle all the time. I can’t look at him when we’re dancing or I’ll just start laughing."

Judy also admitted she may not be as good on the dancefloor as her fellow contestants – who include former

professional rugby player Thom Evans, singer Pixie Lott and presenter Caroline Flack – because she’s struggling to remember her routines.

Quizzed on how her training was going, she said: "It’s a challenge.

"I knew it was going to be hard, but it’s tougher than I thought. I found it really hard to remember the sequences of

steps. Just when I think I’m almost getting the routine, then I have to think about my heel, toes and posture."

Anton added that his partner was struggling to remember "which foot is the left one", laughing: "I’m having such a great time. Judy is hilarious."
