Anton Du Beke has revealed that he recently underwent a hair transplant, with him having teased that "gorgeous and youthful" Bobby Brazier had been an inspiration to him.
The professional dancer, 57 - best known for being on Strictly Come Dancing - spoke about the procedure whilst a guest on ITV's Loose Women this afternoon. He appeared on the panel earlier to discuss the long-running BBC show's live tour.
At one point, Anton referenced having "new hair," which was noticed by Ruth Langsford, 63 - whom he had been partnered with on Strictly in 2017. She subsequently asked the guest: "Sorry, sorry, did you just say 'my new hair'? What?"

They take it off the back and we replanted it down the front." He further commented in the episode: "[Dr Maurice's] an absolute genius."
The guest then teased that he wanted to be like actor Bobby Brazier, 20, who was a finalist on Strictly last year. Anton said: "D'you know what it is? I want to be like Bobby. I see Bobby wafting in the air being gorgeous and youthful."
