Victoria Pendleton won't be happy! Brendan Cole is prepared to miss Strictly final if his wife goes into labour
|
Victoria Pendleton's Strictly Come Dancing partner Brendan Cole has hinted of a potential obstacle if the Olympic cyclist manages to dance her way into the final.
The professional dancer is expecting his first child with Zoe Hobbs - with the due date just two weeks after the BBC show's final.
And Cole has insisted he will have no problem leaving the 32-year-old double gold winning Olympic star without a partner at the final if his wife is rushed into labour.

He told Bang Showbiz: 'There would be no way I would miss the birth. Zoe and the baby are my priority.
'If me and Victoria get through to the final and Zoe goes into labour, I would rush right away to be with her.'
He continued: 'I wouldn't care about missing the final. Victoria would cope and they'd be able to find her a replacement.'

However, Brendan admitted that he loves working Victoria, and has dismissed suggestions that she is emotional.
Victoria has been seen in tears on the show, but Cole added: 'Working with Victoria is great.
'She's really passionate, like me, which I love because she's putting loads of work in to be good. She's always laughing and I've hardly seen her cry.'
