Strictly Come Dancing's Ranvir Singh has revealed that she won't be taking part in the traditional Strictly tour when it eventually goes ahead.

Despite reaching the semi-final of the BBC show's 2020 series alongside professional partner Giovanni Pernice, the Good Morning Britain presenter told colleagues Piers Morgan and Susanna Reid that she turned down the chance to join the live tour as she discussed her post-Strictly life.

"It's so strange to think we even did Strictly," Ranvir said on GMB today (January 25) during a live video call to the studio.

"Once we're out of it… It's like you travelled to a foreign planet," she continued. "It's really strange because Christmas week, the second week out, I felt so flat and they're like: 'Yeah, everyone gets a come-down.'"

Reid interjected then, stating that, if it wasn't for the ongoing coronavirus pandemic, Singh and her fellow celebrity contestants – like Made in Chelsea's Jamie Laing, former EastEnders star Maisie Smith and ultimate winner Bill Bailey – would be gearing up for the Strictly tour right about now.

"I think the tour is coming up in June… I said 'no' to it actually," Singh explained, prompting Piers Morgan to reply: "You little diva!"

"I don't really feel like a dancer," Singh argued. "I learned those dances and everyone's like: 'Ooh you're a dancer now.' I feel like I've learned those routines… But I couldn't do the Jive for toffee."

Strictly Come Dancing airs on BBC One. It's due to return later in 2021. Good Morning Britain airs weekdays from 6am on ITV.
