Winner Stacey is ‘made up’ at Strictly Come Dancing trophy

-

STACEY Dooley has said she is still feeling “made up” one day after her Strictly Come Dancing victory.

The documentar­y maker and her profession­al partner Kevin Clifton won the coveted Glitterbal­l trophy in Saturday’s final of the BBC competitio­n.

Dooley was pictured looking relaxed and happy in London the morning after her win. Yesterday she also posted a string of messages on social media telling of her delight at triumphing on the dancefloor.

One shows her and Clifton holding their trophy above their heads.

“A sincere thank you to every single person who has voted and been so lovely,” said the star.

“So made up.”

Dooley beat Steps singer Faye Tozer, blogger Joe Sugg and Pussycat Doll Ashley Roberts to win the Glitterbal­l trophy.

The show attracted a peak of 12.7 million viewers for Saturday’s final.

The conclusion to the hit series saw a drop on last year’s figures, when Joe McFadden lifted the glitterbal­l trophy in front of a peak audience of 13.1 million.

Saturday night’s instalment was seen by an average of 11.7 million, slightly up on the 11.6 million watching the end of the celebrity dance competitio­n in 2017.

The audience share was 54.4 per cent, slightly down on last year’s figure of 55.9per cent.
