Leah Wood: I’m jealous of my mum's Strictly outfits

She can’t get enough of Jo Wood's glitzy costumes

Leah Wood loves a bit of sparkle

Leah Wood admits she covets her mum’s Strictly Come Dancing frocks.

Jo, 53, is currently rehearsing for the latest series of the BBC show with dance partner Brendan Cole, and Leah says that she has sequin envy.  

‘I love the dresses,’ she tells Now Online. ‘They are over the top but I’ve always wanted to wear one. My mum’s quite excited about them, so we’ll see what she’s wearing. I’m so jealous! They’re lovely!’

Leah, 30, also reveals that Jo is feeling exhausted from all the training.

‘She comes home with blisters on her feet and aching muscles the next day,’ she says. 'But she's got a great dance partner so hopefully those two will plough through the hard times.

'I'm rooting for her all the way.'
 
Leah is supporting the new partnership between (RED) and Bugaboo, which will see Bugaboo contribute 1% of all revenue from sales of their products towards the Global Fund to help eradicate AIDS in Africa.
