Former Coronation Street star Michelle Keegan has insisted she will not be following in her fiance's footsteps and signing up for Strictly Come Dancing.

Mark Wright took part in the BBC One show last year, making it into the final and coming fourth.

Keegan dismissed speculation that she was planning to take part in the next series of Strictly, saying, "No - because it was so horrible watching Mark!"

"Mark's a more confident person than me. And I remember seeing how nervous he was and thinking, 'If he's like that, I just couldn't do it'," she told the Radio Times.

Keegan said the couple will also not be partaking in a Strictly-style dance at their wedding.

"I think everyone assumes we're going to do something choreographed, but we're not," she said, adding, "I couldn't do that anyway because I'm rubbish. It's just going to be a personal thing."
