Jodie Kidd’s modelling days might not be over just yet. The 29-year-old, who earlier this year said she was quitting the catwalk, has dropped several dress sizes since kick-starting her TV career on BBC1’s Strictly Come Dancing.

I caught up with the former M&S model between rehearsals last week and she told me over lunch: ‘I am training for five hours a day and it’s seriously hard work. The weight has just been dropping off.

‘I went to meet my sister Jemma the other day and she was stunned by how much weight I have lost. It’s all down to the dancing. I’m ravenous all the time because rehearsals are so demanding.’

And all this dramatic weight loss is despite a typical lunch for the 5ft 10in star now including eggs Benedict, a forbidden treat in the modelling world.

‘It is very tough but I am finally getting to grips with the sequences,’ adds Jodie. ‘I am now dance-obsessed and wake up counting one step, two step, back step out loud.’ But what about a return to modelling?

‘I always say never say never,’ she teases.
