DEBBIE MCGEE couldn’t contain her excitement as she rushed to Twitter last night to share her delight about dancing with her Strictly Come Dancing partner Giovanni Pernice.

The 59-year-old is currently travelling the country performing every day on the show’s live tour.
But the gruelling shows haven’t had a negative affect on the widow of the late Paul Daniels’ as Debbie McGee is over-the-moon to be dancing again.
She wrote on Twitter: “Having an amazing time on the Strictly tour.”
Debbie’s fans immediately replied to the talented star with many praising the age-defying beauty’s ability and fitness.
One person wrote: “Wonderful. You have made women of a certain age realise they can do more than they think.”
“Looking forward to see you and the others in #Manchester very soon, Debbie. Glad you're all enjoying it. #Strictlytour,” said another excited fan.
A third praised: “@debbiemcgee is having the time of her life right now. So good to see it. Such a natural performer and such energy.”
And there’s no wonder the Strictly finalist is having the best time ever as she has already got her hands on the Glitterball trophy twice in a row.
Having an amazing time on the Strictly tour
Despite losing out in the final of the BBC One competition to Joe McFadden, Debbie and Giovanni were the first couple to be crowned winners when the tour kicked off last week.
Strictly Come Dancing announced the news on their Instagram and said: “Congratulations to @thedebbiemcgee and @pernicegiovann1 who have won the first @strictlycomedancinglive performance of 2018! #Strictly #scdlive #scdtour.”
But the couple are currently being out-ranked by Susan Calman and Kevin Clifton who have been voted winners of the show three times.
However, Debbie may not be showing the audience her dance skills much longer as she seems to having swapped performing for a singing career.

On Twitter, the lead singer on Strictly joked he was teaching Debbie, Alexandra Burke and Joe McFadden to be backing singers.
Posting a video of the group practising, he wrote: “Training up my new backing singers @thedebbiemcgee @alexandramusic @mrjoemcfadden - see you soon #Leeds!.”
Elsewhere, Gemma Atkinson has posted more behind-the-scenes snaps as she continues to fuel rumours of a romance with co-star Gorka Marquez.
