Maidstone's Strictly Come Dancing duo James and Ola Jordan are the new faces of Ann Summers

10:00, 23 August 2016

They are used to dazzling the crowds on the dance floor but now Strictly Come Dancing stars James and Ola Jordan have traded Latin for lingerie for as the new faces of Ann Summers.

The couple, who live in Maidstone, were two of the hit show's most popular dancers but both quit the programme to pursue other opportunities. Ola, 33, left this year after a decade.

Husband James, 38, quit the show two years earlier and has since been on Celebrity Big Brother.

Gillingham-born James has been married to Ola for 13 years and in a relationship for 17. In a video interview they reveal they are quite "open in their relationship".

In their time on Strictly there was always friendly rivaly between the pair as Ola won the competition with BBC reporter Chris Hollins.

James reached the final with partner Denise Van Outen in 2012 but lost out to Olympic gymnast Louis Smith.
