LISA Riley showed off her skills as she did the splits live on Loose Women today.
The 40-year-old, who has shed an incredible seven stone, left her co-hosts and audience gobsmacked with her incredible move.
After revealing that she was offered a place on Strictly after producers saw her doing the splits, the star wasted no time in showing she’s still go it.
Hitching up her skirt, the slimmed downed actress eased into the splits as the audience erupted.
Speaking about an Olympian, who has hit headlines because of her size, Lisa – who has wowed with her weight loss – said: “We need all shapes and sizes.”
The former Emmerdale star continued to discuss how she went through the same thing while on Strictly Come Dancing: “People put you in that envelope. I wanted to prove people wrong that I wasn’t the chunky fat one.
“I was petrified. The main thing that scared me was being lifted. We had to switch it round; there was a rule book this thick and I lifted Robin. It ended up being great for the show.”
She added: “I am the only woman in strictly history to lift a man.”
The star, who lost a stone a week after eating just 400 calories a day, went on to say she was determined to the show because she had “a right” to be on it.
“I knew I had natural rhythm. I wanted to show people I had the right to be on national television,” she said.
“I have overcome fears. I could never go on bridges. I have been on the biggest bridges on the world because of Strictly.”
