Don’t let dancer Cole rob Rachel!

ACTOR Jeremy Edwards hopes his ex-fiancée Rachel Stevens wins the show, even at the expense of his friend Brendan Cole.

Former Hollyoaks star Jeremy, 50, took a light-hearted pop at former Strictly star Brendan.

He said: “He’s a pro dancer. It’s outrageous that he can compete.

“I want

Rachel to win because she isn’t a trained dancer. She is a very talented girl and she looks great.

“If Brendan doesn’t make it to the final

I don’t think I can be friends with him any more because it’s about the easiest thing he’s ever done. We always have such a laugh. I love my best friend Brendan but I don’t want him to steal that trophy.”

Singer Rachel, above, will miss tonight’s show with a bust wrist.
