Craig Revel Horwood to be quizzed by immigration

Strictly Come Dancing star’s marriage to be investigated by the UK Border Agency

Craig Revel Horwood says he worked as a rent boy when he first came to London

Craig Revel Horwood is to face questioning over claims he entered into a sham marriage to gain British residency.

The Strictly Come Dancing judge, 43, is being investigated after a series of letters were discovered that question the motives behind his wedding in 1990.

Australian Craig allegedly left his wife after a year to live with his gay partner – but apparently claimed to officials he was still happily married.

In one letter to the Immigration Department, dated March 1992, Craig is said to have written: ‘My wife and I have been living together since our marriage on 20 August 1990.’

But he was already living with Lloyd Rooney, with whom he had a 15-year relationship.

Jane Horwood, 47, says: 'My marriage to Craig was never a sham.'

Craig has not commented.
