Strictly Come Dancing's star's brutal sex ban amid show fears
Strictly Come Dancing contestant Vicky Pattison has confessed to putting a halt on sex with her husband Ercan Ramadan
Strictly Come Dancing star Vicky Pattison has revealed she's put a stop to bedroom antics with her husband while taking part in the BBC dance competition.
After achieving her best score of the series last weekend, bagging an impressive 29 points with professional partner Kai Widdrington for their spectacular Samba, Vicky and Kai have secured their place in Icons Week.
During a recent episode of the Get A Grip podcast, the 37-year-old confessed she's steered clear of physical intimacy with her other half since starting on the show.
The frank admission came as Vicky outlined the demanding nature of the programme's early weeks, explaining: "One minute you're nervous, you're messing up your dress rehearsal, you're getting your period, you're nearly throwing up behind the scenes because you're so nervous."
As Vicky shared her journey, the presenter quickly jumped in with: "Are you pregnant?", reports Wales Online, reports Wales Online.
But Vicky cheekily responded that her husband hasn't caught sight of her "lady bits in months": "No, you'd have to s**g me to get pregnant, mate. Poor Ercan hasn't seen the sight of my lady bits in months. He's honestly sick of us.
"I'm like, 'Well, you're not getting any now, I'm doing Strictly, mate.'".
Vicky has also confessed the pressure to start a family has been overwhelming.
Speaking on the Women's Health Just as Well podcast with Gemma Atkinson and Claire Sanderson, she shared: "My mum told me 'If not having children is your trajectory, that's fine,' which I thought was powerful. I think we're coming around to the idea as a society that a woman doesn't have to have children to be fulfilled – and, for me, there's still a huge question mark over motherhood.
She further added: "I've worked to finally get to a place where I'm proud of who I'm becoming, and the thought of taking a break... it scares me."
