Will Best: Dad, Dancer, & Nip Slip Star

Will Best is currently experiencing one of the most demanding years of his life, managing a whirlwind of professional and personal commitments. He recently welcomed his first child, a son named Sonny, with his fiancée Tobi Rose, finding fatherhood to be a surreal and magical experience despite the typical infant schedule of 'party at night'.

Simultaneously, Best is competing on Strictly Come Dancing with partner Dianne Buswell, who also navigates motherhood and her own dance training. Best describes his Strictly journey as "lovely," attributing his progress to Buswell's fun-oriented teaching style rather than strict pressure. He admits to being a natural worrier, finding that extreme busyness helps him avoid overthinking.

The television presenter also recalled a memorable moment from his Strictly debut where his nipples were inadvertently exposed on live television. Best humorously recounted how the bosses decided to keep the wardrobe choice, despite initial plans for a different vest.

Training for Strictly has presented physical challenges for Best, including sore feet and a "dodgy old knee," requiring physiotherapy and pain relief. He is also losing weight due to the lack of time for gym sessions and difficulty eating enough. He also recently appeared on Celebrity Mastermind, with Danny Dyer as his specialist subject, and shared a bonding moment with Danny Dyer senior.
