Strictly Come Dancing judge Craig Revel Horwood, who labelled Letitia “fat”, has praised her slimmed-down figure. When she appeared on the BBC’s hit dance series, he’d said: “Fat people can dance, but she needs to sort out her stomach and do more sit-ups.” Since then, the actress has lost two stone in weight and seven inches from her stomach.

Craig said, “She looks fabulous. It’s an amazing transformation and I’m thrilled she took my advice in such a positive way. People thought I was being cruel saying she needed to do sit-ups to strengthen her core, but actually I was just trying to be constructive and I’m delighted she took it on board and has got into such incredible shape.”

Letitia Dean, who is best know for her role as Walford’s Sharon Watts, weighed nearly 11 stone at her heaviest. She has now slimmed down to a size 6 to 8, weighing 8 stone 4 pounds, but she has not lost her famous curves.

She said: “My boobs are still huge although they have shrunk from a 39EE to a 32DD.” During the first few episodes of Strictly Come Dancing, she struggled to find her dancing feet. But like Albert Square’s feisty barmaid Sharon, she kept going.
