Strictly's James Jordan's daughter rushed to hospital as pal Robin Windsor dies
Former Strictly Come Dancing professional James Jordan has revealed he had to rush his young daughter to hospital just hour after discovering his ex-co-star Robin Windsor had died.
The 45-year-old dance professional said he was having a ‘truly horrible day’ as he dealt with a family emergency after discovering Robin had died at the age of 44. James is proud dad to three-year-old daughter Ella - who he shares with fellow ex-Strictly star Ola Jordan, 41, who he has been married to since 2003.
Sharing a photo of his daughter on social media, James explained that he had been forced to rush her to hospital as she was being left vomiting due to coughing fits. The health scare came at the same time as the tragic news of Robin’s passing.
The image showed Ella looking downcast while looking at a plaster that had been stuck on the back of her hand. Ola shared the same image and message on her own Instagram page.
