Iwan Thomas has revealed that Peter Andre is feeling the pressure after passing the half way mark on Strictly Come Dancing.

Thomas – who was eliminated from the competition in week one – said Andre is finding it “hard”.

Speaking to the Daily Mirror, he said: “I’m still in contact with Peter quite a lot, and I think he’s finding it quite hard with all the training.

“He’s someone you’d think would breeze through it but I’m speaking to him quite often because he’s finding it quite hard.”

Andre impressed viewers with his moves and found himself topping the leader board when the series kicked off, but last week he found himself at the bottom and facing a dance off against Jamelia.

His jive to Tina Turner's River Deep, Mountain High with professional Janette Manrara was deemed “odd” while Craig Revel Horwood slammed the singer for being “flat footed”.
