Strictly star Neil Jones' admits it's now 'harder to go on tour'

Neil Jones is finding the Strictly Come Dancing tour a lot harder since the arrival of his baby daughter.

The Strictly professional, 41, and former Love Island star Chyna Mills, 25, welcomed their daughter Havana, in October. Speaking to the Mirror, Neil admitted he's struggling with the intensity of the tour, which kicked off in January and runs throughout February.

He said: "It's one of these things we had it a lot which Strictly, I would make sure that I try and get home on the evenings with the tour it’s a bit harder because we're all over [the country] but we've made sure that during the tour we're going to see each other once a week so that's nice."

The ballroom and latin dancer went on to reveal how becoming a parent to his three-month-old daughter was the "best feeling in the world". He explained how he and his fiancée Chyna are so in love with their baby girl and how she's growing.

The Strictly star added: "Both of us could just sit there and look at [Havana] all day – you're just so excited to see what she gets up to." Neil, who has teamed up with Burns Pet Nutrition to try and change the perception that exercising your dog is a chore, is a proud animal lover and has three dogs, which he admits he sometimes struggles with exercising during the winter months.

He said: "A lot of the time, for instance, two of my dogs never want to go out when it's raining, when I try and take them for a walk, they will pull back and be like, ‘No!’. And the other one doesn't care what the weather is, she wants to go out all the time.

"The other two if you don't go out when there’s bad weather, they're not going to get the exercise they need so what's quite nice about this campaign is the fact that you can actually exercise with your dog and do something fun, which is good fitness for you but also for the dog at the same time."
