It’s been just over a month since news broke that Angela Scanlon would be hitting the dance floor on this year’s Strictly Come Dancing.
Yes, the Meath native was announced as one of the first six contestants on BBC Radio Two and since then she’s even been tipped as the favourite to win!
Now, with the first day of rehearsals having kicked off, Angela took to Instagram to give fans an update on how she’s finding it all.
And if her post is anything to go by, it’s safe to say competing on Strictly is no easy job!

“Wouldn’t mind turning back time to yesterday when my neck worked & my limbs moved naturally & my sweet ignorant bliss made me excited for what was to come,” she began.
“Twenty-four hours later, I crawled home.
“Stopped at the shops for a protein shake, bought magnesium & Epsom salts, a bag of snacks, coconut water,” she added.
“Gang, all the enthusiasm, no idea… #strictly #Day1.”
“We’ve been close and then, truthfully we wanted to have another baby. We were trying to have a baby, I was then pregnant, then I had a very small child. And now, it just felt right this year,” she shared on BBC Radio Two.
Opening up about the show on an Instagram Q&A Angela also described “the joy” that came with it, adding how she even felt overwhelmed by how kind people had already been towards her.
We can’t wait to see our gal in action!
