BBC Strictly Come Dancing star admits 'I was fearful' as she announces new venture
BBC Strictly Come Dancing star admits 'I was fearful' as she announces new venture Former Strictly Come Dancing star Annabel Croft marked a career first on Wednesday Former Strictly Come Dancing star Annabel Croft admitted, "I was fearful", as she announced a new venture. The ex-tennis professional took part in the 21st series of Strictly alongside professional partner Johannes Radebe. The popular duo reached the semi-final stage, securing fourth place behind victorious couple Ellie Leach and Vito Coppola. Annabel is now embarking on a 28-date tour across England, Scotland and Wales. Her debut tour, entitled From Tennis Balls to Glitter Balls, begins next month and will offer audiences an insider's perspective on the world's most prestigious tennis championships, whilst also delving into Annabel's Strictly experience, reports Edinburgh Live.

"I've been asked to do a speaking tour around the country from middle to late September till November, and it's new territory for me because I've never done anything like that before," she revealed. "I have done speeches and things, but it's a chance for me to talk about what does it take to go from being a little girl as I was at nine, picking up a racket for the first time. "What does it take, sort of the apprenticeship of going on that journey to then make it to Wimbledon, and then retiring at 21 and moving into broadcasting, interviewing all these wonderful great champions. "And how did that lead me to Strictly Come Dancing. So, it's kind of a tour to look back and reflect on my life." Annabel competed on the 21st series of Strictly (Image: BBC) The 59-year-old went on to express her pride in overcoming her fear of public speaking, which she described as "terrifying". "When I look back at speaking, it was actually something I was very fearful of when I was younger. I used to almost hyperventilate and have a complete panic attack about speaking publicly," she openly admitted. "It's funny for me now thinking, 'Well, I'm going to do a speaking tour'. And it's like, 'How on earth have I come such a big circle?' To be able to have the confidence."

Current cast rumours include Love Island's Dani Dyer, Olympic legend Mo Farah and Corrie star Helen Flanagan. Strictly Come Dancing returns to BBC One and BBC iPlayer this autumn

Loving West Lothian couple share secret to success as they celebrate 65 years of marriage
Our community members are treated to special offers, promotions and adverts from us and our partners. You can check out at any time. More info A loving West Lothian couple has celebrated a special 65 years of marriage. Colin and Margaret Bailey marked their Blue Sapphire Wedding Anniversary with the help of staff at Heathfield Nursing Home in Armadale. Margaret recently became a resident at the nursing home while Colin still lives at home nearby. The couple were married back on August 5, 1960 in the town's East Church by a relative of Margaret's who carried out the ceremony. She recalled: 'I enjoyed my wedding day, the church was lovely, the minister that married us was actually my brother-in-law.' The couple went on to have three children, all boys, reports the Daily Record. Margaret, 84, just moved into Heathfield in July but the couple are still almost inseparable, with Colin visiting every day and often staying for dinner. The anniversary party saw activities staff at the nursing home in Armadale's Bathgate Road decorate the lounge area with photos scanned from Colin and Margaret's wedding album along with some sapphire blue-coloured decorations.

He arrived first thing, bearing gifts for his beloved wife. Margaret gifted Colin a new wedding ring which she lovingly slid onto his finger, and he returned the gesture by presenting her with a stunning sapphire eternity ring. Margaret continued: 'I just love everything about him, I remember walking to church together every Sunday morning. We would always fall out on the way home because he didn't share my faith. We laugh about it now.' They spent the morning reminiscing about their 65 years of marriage with staff before celebrating in style by attending a party with the rest of the residents at the home. The pair enjoyed a live performance from local singer Lauren Kyle and Margaret commandeered the microphone at times to sing a song or two herself. Margaret added: 'I was surprised that Colin enjoyed the concert so much, he doesn't normally care for music. We had a lovely day together, he looked so handsome, like a young man again. We enjoyed the whole day, staff did a wonderful job'. Roz Smith from the Activities Team at the nursing home, said: 'The lounge had been set up by activities staff to host a romantic evening meal, allowing the couple to spend the evening together in privacy. Colin had requested homemade stew while Margaret requested whiskey which we were happy to honor. They rounded off the day of celebration by cutting a cake together.' It's estimated that less than 16 marriages out of every 100 reach the 65-year Blue Sapphire Anniversary milestone, so what does Margaret think the key is to longevity. 'If you want a long lasting marriage, I advise that you try not to fall out over silly things,' she said. 'It's easy to fall out, but much harder to fall back in. Love each other fiercely, always'.
